Jane Beattie, Bonhams agent in Ireland.
Bonhams is to boost its Irish presence with a new exhibition space in Dublin. The international fine art auction house, which appointed Jane Beattie as Irish agent last year, plans to open new office space in a Georgian terrace at 31 Molesworth St. in Dublin. This is to undergo refurbishment to provide the best possible space to display art. When complete the building will offer a ground floor office and private meeting room for valuations and first floor exhibition rooms.
“We will be offering a range of valuation services as well as sourcing works of art for sale in London and beyond” Jane Beattie said. “As Bonhams now has a presence in 27 countries on five continents the Dublin office gives direct access to the world market for art and antiques. We regularly source items that are sent to our salerooms in London, Edinburgh, New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Hong Kong and Sydney.”
