NIGEL GREENWOOD GALLERY

1970 - ?

Nigel Palin Gallery

Nigel Palin Greenwood (28 May 1941–14 April 2004) was a British art dealer. In 1970 he opened his own gallery at 60 Glebe Place, Chelsea, where he presented work by Keith Arnold Milow (1945-), John Walker (1939-), Edward Joseph Ruscha (1937-) and Mino Argento (1927-). In 1971 the gallery established itself at 41 Sloane Gardens and Greenwood enjoyed visiting the studios of younger artists and presenting their work in solo shows. In 1985 the gallery moved to New Burlington Street where Greenwood continued to show his favoured artists and Greenwood was recognised as a major player in the British art world. The financial collapse of the Greenwood gallery in 1992 as a result of a general downturn in the art market disturbed the London art world. The contents of the gallery were sold by Sothebys after which, Nigel Greenwood worked as a private dealer and adviser including to the Tate Gallery. Suffolk artists who exhibited with the Nigel Greenwood Gallery include Jeffery Camp.
