Outstanding Art
Aptly named 'Outstanding Art', the gallery showcases the works of several world class artists and their original works. A wonderful opportunity for local and international artists to display their work and to establish a further collectors base in the north of England. Set to rival the stylish, contemporary galleries you might find on the streets of Chelsea; Outstanding Art also feature a cocktail bar serving up a bespoke menu for all to savour.

We also host a wide range events such as artist workshops, live music, comedy nights, pop up exhibitions and more!
Services
Outstanding Art is a unique space for everyone in the community, the every ounces' champagne/cocktail/coffee bar, hidden in a plain sight on an obscure patch of North Road, Durham. A place where a cup of espresso, a warm smile or a friendly embrace epitomise life's simple pleasures. The menu is completely customisable!
Outstanding Art are delighted to offer the opportunity for Artists to submit proposals to be part of our monthly pop up Exhibitions. Works - We are accepting submissions for all types of paintings, drawings, sculpture, photography and craft. These must be available for sale through the gallery. Please apply with each work individually.
Born and bred in Newcastle upon Tyne, I am passionate about my heritage - the buzz of the place, the variety of scenery, the history, but above all the warm, friendly people. I'm also passionate about photography - from planning a shoot, to the research preceding a shoot, to getting out there, processing each photograph, to developing the artwork, to printing as Fine Art, and sharing it with you.
This Exhibition has now finished within the gallery, the below works are still available online only as a limited edition run of prints. The Northerner was born into a family of miners based in the North of England. Influenced by Cornish and Lowry, The Northerner paints warm, familiar scenes of working class 'Northerners', of miners, shipyards and the like.

Great staff and an interesting lounge bar with changing exhibitions and cultural events. Not to be missed if you are a Durham creative and/or you like a good coffee, cocktail or piece of art for your walls.
