Founded in 1986, Cavalier Galleries, Inc. offers fine painting, sculpture and photography at two premier exhibition spaces in Greenwich, Connecticut and Nantucket, Massachusetts. Their international stable of artists provides the galleries with a selection of works ranging from traditional and representational to modern and contemporary. From those who have achieved an important place in the history of art, to emerging young talent, their artists continue to provide them with extraordinary works that they are proud to present to visitors and collectors. From the galleries’ inception it has been at the forefront of promoting sculpture. In 1987 the gallery put forth the first U.S. exhibition of the Royal Society of British Sculptors.


In 1988 the Cavalier Sculpture Garden was established in Stamford, CT and in 1992, in conjunction with F. D. Rich and Frank Mercedes and Sons, Inc., Cavalier curated The “Borglums of Fairfield County,” which was the first show where both Gutzon (of Mount Rushmore fame) and his brother Solon exhibited together.  The following year, the nationally-acclaimed Stamford Sculpture Walk opened. This outdoor exhibition was dedicated to public interaction, education, enrichment and enjoyment. Cavalier’s involvement culminated with the 1999 exhibition “Important Sculptors of the Late Twentieth Century” which included major works by Moore, Botero, Smith, Oldenburg, Segal and Nevelson. Today, Cavalier represents the finest in contemporary sculpture including the works of Hans Van de Bovenkamp, Reuben Nakian, Bruno Lucchesi and Jim Rennert. These world class talents have enabled Cavalier to make its mark in the corporate and private collectors market and uphold Cavalier’s strong tradition of promoting sculpture.  Visit the gallery's website at ... http://cavaliergalleries.com
