Café Art has the unusual benefit of being an online gallery, but with a physical presence in Hemingways of Haslemere. The gallery originally started life in separate premises located in Haslemere High Street but with soaring rental costs and all the other associated costs of running a High Street Gallery, the decision to move to being based at Hemingways was an easy one! This synergy of working with another local business, has made it possible to bring fantastic original contemporary art at very affordable prices, and yet still maintaining a location to view the artwork. Best of both worlds, that benefits Café Art and our clients. It also means that visitors can enjoy fabulous food and drink at the same time!
All the artwork is priced.The prices shown include the framing. The style of framing is known as “floating framing”. The paintings are all originals collected by Stuart. There are many more paintings on display upstairs in the Business Club which anyone is welcome to view.
The Australian Aboriginal works are authentic aboriginal. There are many fake copies painted in the style of aboriginal painting. (Dot Painting otherwise known as Pointillism). These paintings all come with a letter of authenticity from the Aboriginal Council. Other paintings are Moroccan, inspired often by the “gnawa” Moroccan movement of music and dance. Some of the paintings are European.
All the works available can be seen on the website cafe-art.co.uk
