Commercial law firm, Beachcroft, has teamed up with the world-leading creative network, Arts & Business, to launch Visual in the South West.
Beachcroft is the first company in the South West to use the new Visual service, which will see artwork by 20 professional local artists exhibited at the firm’s office on Portwall Lane. All of the artwork has been chosen by Beachcroft’s employees from the Visual collection.
Beachcroft’s regional senior partner, Michael Bothamley, commented: “Visual is a unique initiative which helps energise the workplace and allows us to invest in the local arts community.
“Involving staff members in the selection process has helped to engage and motivate our employees. The exhibition will not only help showcase the work of talented local artists but provides a creative focal point for both visiting clients and our employees.”
Gavin Buckley of Arts & Business added: “Our research has shown that there is a thirst for visual art in the workplace among employers and employees. More than three quarters of workers would prefer to work in an environment where there is art on the walls. I am thrilled that Visual is now available to businesses in the South West."
“The artists available through Visual have all been selected by industry experts ensuring the work on offer is of the highest quality, and demonstrating that we have an excellent crop of visual artists working right here in the region. By investing in them, we are enriching both corporate environments and the visual art market.”
