Affordable Art Fair Hampstead celebrates ten years of inviting visitors to discover the joy of collecting art on North London’s stunning Hampstead Heath, 5 – 8 May.
After a two-year break, the Affordable Art Fair returns to Hampstead Heath in May. The Fair reveals a programme of exclusive and limited-edition works, first-time exhibitors, curated collections, exciting partnerships, and plans to celebrate the North London area with stunning displays, local artists, and artworks capturing the iconic landscape.
More than 100 contemporary galleries worldwide will exhibit work in a marquee on the Lower Fairground from May 5-8 – with prices from $6000. Since the first fair in 2011, organisers estimate 150,000 people have visited, spending more than $34 million.
Alongside a bar, workshops and installations celebrating Hampstead’s history, the fair will spotlight emerging talent, including not-for-profit Made in Arts London, which showcases the best galleries. Expect an exciting array of international art from 25 overseas exhibitors worldwide.
These include Air Contemporary, Camden Open Air Gallery, Edinburgh-based Morningside Gallery, Galerie Calderone from Brittany, Contempop Gallery from New York, Barnes Collective from South Africa, and T&B Gallery from South Korea.
There’s a host of fresh new work to discover at the fair, alongside rare and limited-edition pieces. Green stage Gallery will showcase sought-after works from British abstract painter Martyn Jones for the first time, along with new artist Sara Hayward, whose ‘Elle 1:1 000 000’ series explores depictions of women around the world. Her works are constructed from newspaper cuttings to explore how real life can be distorted by media interpretation.
Fair favourites Clifton Fine Art presents a series of new hyper-detailed urban landscape paintings by Tom White, whilst Sol Art Gallery from Dublin offers new collections by Portuguese artist Luis Bivar and Mexican artist José Cacho.
Works from finalists of the prestigious Jackson’s Painting Prize 2022 will be unveiled at Affordable Art Fair Hampstead. The showcase will feature works selected by an expert judging panel of artists, art advisors, and leading figures in the contemporary art world – including Affordable Art Fair’s own UK Regional Managing Director, Jennifer Conner.
