Every piece of art in the collection is owned not loaned, bringing a fresh take on art appreciation that removes pressure from the gallery experience and places emphasis on enjoying art at leisure. Crucially it also supports artists upfront allowing them to continue creating.

Encouraging emerging and visionary artists is at the heart of the ArtÓ mission and many pieces are direct commissions. ArtÓ is also committed to championing causes important to our featured artists such as challenging stereotypes and biases.

“At ArtÓ you will find collectibles, rarities and some oddballs. It’s in our nature to be a bit maverick” says founder Tony Finn. The collection encompasses over 300 varied pieces which will be exhibited on rotation and available to browse online.

ArtÓ aims to be a launch pad for a creative community with a relaxed downstairs level in a minimalist Nordic style that welcomes visitors to enjoy art over coffee, conversation or a book. It also doubles as an inviting space for events including talks, workshops and private hire.

As we embrace new ways of working ArtÓ offers a casual meeting place on the ground floor and a flexible workspace with bookable workstations upstairs. Why settle for a bland environment when you could pursue your projects alongside vibrant artworks to stimulate the mind?

“Therein lies the beauty of art – a work that invokes a response, conversation or debate is special” says Finn. ArtÓ intends to carry on prompting reaction, kindling innovation and bringing people together. We all need a touch of ArtÓ in our lives.
