Eames Fine Art reflects on their Highlights of 2020

Due to the different lockdowns and restrictions in the past 10 months or so, galleries and museums have not been able to stage events and open exhibitions for visitors.  Like many, digital online shows  have become the norm.

Eames Fine Art in Bermondsey, London is the same and has hosted a varied programme of exhibitions.  It even opened a new gallery, The Print Room, and reported hosting more shows in 2020 than in any other previous year.

While the gallery is thankful that many people continued to support them and the artists they represent, by buying work online or visiting the gallery when possible, they also realised that many of their favourite works from 2020 are still available, 

So as a way to thank their supporters, Eames Fine Art is offering 10% off any of these favourite works if they are purchased before the end of January.  To view these works, go to their website (click HERE) to read “Highlights of 2020”.

Each of the gallery's team member has chosen a work that they love that was produced or exhibited in 2020 by an Eames Fine Art artist. These choices show that even with its myriad challenges, 2020 was an exciting year for exhibitions and innovation at the gallery. 

With the pandemic still rampant and not under control in the UK, physical shows are not likely to take place anytime soon.  Online events will continue to be important for artists and galleries to showcase recent works, and will rely on art lovers for their continued support whenever possible.

Come rain or shine, Bermondsey Street the place to be this weekend for some art loving

Never mind the weather.  This weekend visit Bermondsey Street for a lot of happenings.  The area - south side of the River Thames and stone's throw from London Bridge - has two of the most sought after food markets in London Borough Market and Maltby Street Market to say the least, which are only a minute's walk away from the Eames Fine Art Gallery where an Open Weekend is held on Saturday 18 June 11am - 6pm and Sunday 19 June 12pm - 5pm.

At Eames Art GAllery, you can join fellow art lovers for a browse and even a rummage through the 1000s of original artworks they have at the studio by the many artists they represent - from Modern Masters such as Andy Warhol, Henri Matisse and Marc Chagall, to Contemporary Masters including David Hockney, Antony Gormley and Paula Rego as well as exciting new talented artists such as Mila Fürstovà, Sophie Layton, Paul Catherall and Ross Loveday.

The area around the Eames Fine Art Gallery includes many wonderful museums, galleries and working studios very close by, and this weekend is the exciting opening of Tate Modern's new extension 'SwitchHouse'.  The new building is open ahead of schedule and offers an amazing 360º view of London from it's roof terrace, it has interesting open spaces for performance art and interactive installations.  Tate Modern is about a 15 - 20 minute walk away from Bermondsey Street.
