About us

When Will Ramsay established the Affordable Art Fair in 1999, his vision was to create a relaxed and welcoming environment in which art-lovers could browse and buy 1,000s of original contemporary paintings, sculptures, photographs and prints. Fast-forward 25 years and Will’s ethos still holds true; our 16 fairs around the world welcome over 210,000 visitors per year, who can take their pick from a mix of local, national and international galleries showcasing a huge array of artworks by established artists and rising stars, all priced under £7,500/€10,00/$12,000. We hold fairs in Amsterdam, Austin, Berlin, Brisbane, Brussels, Hamburg, Hong Kong, London, Melbourne, New York, Singapore, Stockholm, Sydney and Vienna. Each unique fair is the ideal day out with family and friends, filled with a creative smorgasbord of artist performances, innovative talks and tours, hands-on workshops, live music and irresistible restaurants and bars. In total, over 3.5 million people have visited an Affordable Art Fair, taking home over 550,000 pieces of artwork to loving new homes since our humble beginnings!

    We're delighted to share The Fair Advantage report 📊 In January 2024, we asked our current exhibitors to complete a survey as part of our 25th Anniversary year that was designed to provide insights into the small-to-medium gallery market, plus highlight and champion the impact of Affordable Art Fair on the art market since our launch in 1999. Having worked with an expert research agency to analyse the results, we can now share The Fair Advantage report. It's great to see how participation in our fairs has benefitted so many small-to-medium sized galleries. Access the full report 👉 https://lnkd.in/eQUdskVP
