Fine Art Collector | Autumn 2020

Our readers with Fine Art Collector at the top of Ben Nevis

Our event at the i360 in 2019

We started out with the aim of making art accessible for all, and that’s exactly what we’ve done. We’re proud to be a part of the British high street and our success has been thanks not only to our amazing artists and staff, but you, our loyal collectors. From attending our events to reading

Fine Art Collector , subscribing to our emails and entering our Your World, Our Art® competition, you have all played a part in the transformation of our one small gallery into the UK’s leading art retailer.

Our journey has taken us to Santa Fe, New Mexico, to visit Billy Schenck’s studio; to Shanghai for Bob Dylan’s Retrospectrum exhibition, and to the sandy beaches of Montauk, New York, to explore the wilderness with Raphael Mazzucco. We’ve launched collections with Sega, 50 Shades of Grey author E.L. James, Pelé and Playboy to name just a few. And you’ve been there every step of the way.

TOASTING THE BEST MOMENTS FROM OUR JOURNEY SO FAR

It’s hard to believe that it’s already been 25 years since we opened the doors of our first gallery in Stratford-upon-Avon. Since then, we’ve welcomed customers to our 40 nationwide galleries. We’ve seen our art featured in the national press, collected by celebrities and displayed in homes and venues around the world. But through it all, our family feel and ethos haven’t changed.
