About

‘Founded by female art connoisseurs on a mission to pick and purvey affordable masterpieces, a new wave of discerning retail platforms provide the perfect place to start a collection’

Harper’s Bazaar on Oliver Projects, January 2023 

Oliver Projects is a contemporary art gallery with a special focus upon artists based in south east London. Having operated nomadically for several years, we have exhibited work by numerous London-based and international artists in a diverse range of venues including family homes, art fairs and educational settings, often in collaboration with others. Our aim is to make discovering and collecting contemporary art feel easy.

In 2022, we launched our online shop which features accessibly-priced unique and limited edition works including paintings, drawings, prints and ceramics. Artworks can be purchased directly through this platform, making the collecting experience simple - whilst directly supporting artists at all stages of their careers.

Our first permanent home, Oliver Projects Gallery, will open at 51 Grove Vale, East Dulwich, on the evening of 17th July, 2025. View our opening hours
