Observations' One to Watch: Megan Piper, Gallerist, 27

"Somebody said, 'So you're not doing anything young and emerging?' I said, 'No, but I'm young and emerging.'

At her new Piper Gallery in London's Fitzrovia, Megan Piper champions artists whose careers span 40 years or more. The former employee of fine art handlers Momart quit her job to start a gallery. Her current exhibition, Then and Now, includes work by British artists Edward Allington and Vaughan Grylls.
