About Us

KELLART is built on a simple belief—great art deserves to be seen, and emerging artists deserve a platform that values their voice. We bring together rising talent and collectors who appreciate contemporary work with depth, character and lasting impact. Whether you’re exploring art for the first time or expanding a well-established collection, this is a space shaped by connection, intention and a genuine love for bold, meaningful creativity.

KELLART

A legacy of passion. A future of possibilities.

KELLART was born from a deep appreciation for bold, statement-making contemporary art and a desire to champion the next generation of creative talent.

Our journey is rooted in a personal story—one that began decades ago with a love for art, passed down through generations.

FAMILY BUSINESS

Where it all began

Our story traces back to Bobby Kellard, a professional footballer whose career on the pitch led to an unexpected passion for art. After retiring from the league, Bobby turned his focus to creativity, not just as an admirer but as a collector and gallerist. He opened his own gallery in Essex, where he built an art community based on trust, connection, and a true passion for unique, thought-provoking pieces. His philosophy was simple: if he didn’t love it, he wouldn’t sell it.

Today, we carry forward Bobby’s legacy through KELLART—a contemporary art gallery dedicated to supporting and championing emerging artists while offering collectors the opportunity to invest in the future of art.

What we're about

Carefully curating

At KELLART, we believe in curation with intention. We don’t follow fleeting trends—we seek out artists whose work is bold, compelling, and investment-worthy. Our collections feature a mix of original pieces and limited editions across urban, pop, graffiti, typographic, and abstract styles—each one carefully selected for its impact and artistic merit.

We exist for both art lovers and collectors—those who want to own something distinctive, meaningful, and future-defining. Whether you're a first-time buyer or a seasoned investor, KELLART is your destination for contemporary art that transcends the ordinary.
