Buy Contemporary Art in Manchester at Artzu Gallery

Artzu Gallery has been a hot spot for buying contemporary art in Manchester for over a decade.

Why Buy Art?

So many of us will invest a substantial sum in a new sofa or television and yet think very little about what we place on our walls.  A sofa might last five or ten years if you are lucky, and will add little to the real individuality of your home or work place.  A painting on the other hand is something you will have for a life time and can then pass on to your children.

As Manchester’s most progressive independent gallery the artists we represent are selected not only for the quality of work they produce but also because of their commitment to their practise and to their career as an artist.  This ultimately means that art work is much more likely to increase in value than your sofa!

What to Buy?

Starting an art collection is a journey.  It’s really a chance for you to begin reflecting and learning about your individual taste and personality.  Hopefully over the years this journey will be an exciting learning curve as you discover more about the arts, and through this more about yourself.

Choose pieces which speak to you personally and don’t be afraid to listen to your instincts.  Art is very subjective and you want to choose something you will be happy to live and grow with.

How can Artzu Gallery Help? 

The gallery houses an overview of some of the artists we represent but much of the work is held in storage.  You can visit the gallery and look through the portfolios or select work from the website.  We’re happy to work with you if there is something in particular that you want and can help to guide you in your decision making process.

Once you have a clearer idea of the pieces you are interested in then we can arrange a viewing of the art work and even bring paintings or sculpture to your home to help you decide if they are right for the space.

Ultimately take time with the process and enjoy!
