We are the number one predictor of future art stars in Britain
Here is an article in the December edition of Independent papers ( www.londonlocals.co.uk ):
(Fraser Kee Scott's) gallery opened in 1997 and immediately started selecting and helping artists who will go on to be the most important artists of the 21st century. The artwork Fraser Kee Scott... chose to open with was 'Crucifix' by Alison Jackson. Alison had just got her BA from Chelsea School of Art and the photograph was for sale at £1500. 5 years later Alison Jackson won a Bafta for her Channel 4 TV show, had a best selling book in America published by Penguin and 'Crucifix' multiplied by ten in value and is predicted to do so again in the next few years. Fraser also showed Stuart Pearson Wright from that years graduates. Stuart is now tipped as the next Lucien Freud with the British Museum buying his paintings and the National Portrait Gallery commissioning his portrait of J K Rowlings. Also from their degree shows were selected Mila Judge Furstova who is currently taking America by storm and Thomas Ostenberg who recently sold three monumental bronze sculptures to a trustee of The Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco. Fraser does more than just select the very finest artists he also has a great ability at helping them reach their full potential. Other examples of his exceptional ability of selecting and helping the future art world leaders are his selling more work between 2000 and 2003 than any other gallery for Dean Marsh who won the most prestigious portrait competition in the world, the BP award in 2005, and showing the work of Andrew Tift for a year before he won in 2006! Actually Fraser's talent at selecting and helping artists who go on to become art stars is unparalleled with other successful predictions being showing Gereon Krebber before he won the Jerwood sculpture prize, Diarmuid Byron O'Connor before Her Royal Highness, Sophie of Wessex unveiled his 'Peter Pan' at Great Ormond Street, offering Natasha Kissell's works many years before her Tatler interview or purchases by Saatchi,... the list goes on and on. Fraser is keen to point out that he likes to find out exactly what a client needs and wants so if you are looking for a very special artwork by a rising star in art contact him today!
Sophie, Countess of Wessex unveils 'Tinkerbell' at Great Ormond Street Childrens Hospital
On Thursday the 29th of September 2005 just after 1.30pm Sophie Her Royal Highness Sophie the Countess of Wessex unveiled Diarmuid Byron O'Connor's 'Tinker Bell' at Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital ( www.gosh.org ). There are 150 of the sculptures for sale to the public.
Great Ormond Street is to benefit by 17% of gross proceeds from the sale of each sculpture. According to the Evening Standard the children's hospital has had a recent drop in funding after the copyright fell away in the USA from J M Barrie's Peter Pan story recently and this sculpture is one way of gaining some much needed extra funds.

Paul Harvey is Commissioned by JOB for Alphonse Mucha's 19C Design Classic
Paul Harvey, the punk rocker, painter and Stuckist artist, was contacted by Andrew Armstrong, the Director of JOB Cigarette Papers, with the commission of a lifetime – to bring up to date the legendary advertising posters of JOB, which were painted by Paul's idol, Alphonse Mucha, in the 19th century.
JOB's slogan is “Original Doubles” so Paul painted famous duos of our generation. He painted The Mighty Boosh, The White Stripes and Gilbert and George.
Gilbert and George said they were delighted to be painted by Paul Harvey and gave their full OK for the ad to be used.
