A premier online source for limited-edition works by the well known contemporary artists, Eyestorm aims to make artwork more available AND more affordable to a wider audience.
Arranged as clearly as a stock house, Eyestorm deals mainly with prints and photograhs. It is fun to look through. Purchasing online is easy. You will find a wide variety of styles in work that ranges from the hundreds of dollars to the tens of thousands.
Want a David Hockney? Got it. Want a portrait of Pele by Lord Litchfield? Got it. Want a Damien Hirst? Got it. Want an Andy Goldsworthy? Got it.
Yes, losing the NY outpost of this new and highly approachable genre of galleries/dealers was a real loss.
But they DO make regular stateside appearances at the local art and photography shows.
Their range is affordable for fine art. But it still IS fine art, so expect to get the checkbook out.
I believe they are associated with britart.com, which has a higher price range, but the work there seems to be smaller editions, higher-end artists. There's a portriat of David Beckham made from communion hosts that I sooooooooo want.
...and former NY employee Michael Hall was a great and knowledgeable resource. Wonder where he ended up when they closed in NYC?
p(too): Sweet tip on britart! Seems like the George Toth oil paintings would be right up AT-ers' alley. Did you see the Stephen Morgan boxer portraits? Me, I'm digging John Angerson's portrait of Shane McGowan with the beer bottle in the foreground.
