Concrete Playground

Sounds like a bit of a contradiction doesn't it — Affordable Art? Well imagine walking through a bazaar of art — there's some you like, some you don't want to look twice at but there's also the freedom to openly discuss these things without feeling the pressure of a 'formal gallery' purchase. Like any good bazaar, the masters of knowledge man the stalls, i.e. gallery owners who are on location to discuss the art work and considering the varying sizes and prices, there's no doubt you're going to find something you like.

Looking at all that art can get dizzyingly confusing though so there's the opportunity to take part in the 'art walk and talks' where you can learn about the do's and don'ts of art collecting and check out the print-making process — then walk away with your very own copy.

The Affordable Art Fair is so popular that it's held in Amsterdam, London, Milan, Singapore and New York. Although travelling to one of those cities for the event may change its description of 'affordable', it's an excellent opportunity for you to start your collection (or expand it) while supporting the artists that contribute to the culture of this fine city.
