Byard Art offers a nice warm welcome to our new Artists exhibiting at the gallery this month. This Exhibition, Breath of Fresh Air 2022, showcases new work by Melanie Goemans, Donald Macdonald, Lucy Du Sautoy, and Greg Pearson. Byard Art is proud to bring new contemporary art to Cambridge, for local admirers and international visitors alike. One of the things we enjoy most about what we do, is offering a new platform to these artists, helping them display their work in such an exceptional location, and helping them reach new audiences. Enjoy browsing our online catalogue, and be sure to visit the gallery over the coming weeks to view this exhibition in person. Do get in touch if ou would like to discuss any pieces in more detail. Sit back, relax, and take in a Breath of Fresh Air!
