Elena Gual, www.elenagual.art, is a London-based Spanish artist who is on the verge of becoming the next big art star.
Her journey to London took her via the Florence Academy of Art, Saint Martin’s School of Arts, as well as the Royal Academy in London, so she has the pedigree behind her to back up her undoubtable talent. Utilising the skills she learned at these venerable establishments, Elena has spent the proceeding years developing her own inimitable style, bringing her to the attention of the curators at Grove Square Assets & Grove Square Galleries.
Grove Square Galleries’ managing director George Harrison explains the reasons why Elena was quickly identified as an artist of interest:
“First and foremost, women in power are very popular right now with all demographics. There is a concerted movement regarding equality and women’s significance in our society, which Elena tallies in very nicely with. There is also demand for young, dynamic, entrepreneurial women in business at present, and Elena emphatically ticks that box as well.
“Elena comes with an educational pedigree behind her that lines up with all the greatest artists, and when it comes to investment grade art, an artists’ background is usually the first port of call for any scrutiny. For us, Elena’s education is another area that adds strength to her brand.
“In addition to her schooling, Elena is well versed in social media, boasting an Instagram following of 185,000 people. Bearing in mind that this number has been reached without any real promotion or exposure and you can see why this number is phenomenal. In this current day and age, social media can make or break a professional in any industry, and Elena has already shown that she has the ability to command a huge audience, which is only set to grow exponentially.
