Introducing Abandon Art

Fantasy, Horror and Surreal Art at Abandon Art

Probably the first fantastic art gallery on the web - ever!

The famous Abandon Art Gallery of Fantastic Art was based upon the success of the original physical Abandon Art gallery owned by Steve Jackson (the original founder of Games Workshop and writer of many fantasy gaming books etc). Abandon Art was the world's first gallery exclusively devoted to Fantasy and Science Fiction art. The gallery opened its virtual doors in 1995 with The Visionaries; later, were unveiled two new wings: Terry Pratchett's Discworld and The Daniel Woods Collection and then the Wonderland Suite with its incredible 'Alice in Wonderland' paintings. Another addition at around this time was the beautiful Rivendell by Alan Lee inspired by the place of the same name in JRR Tolkien's books 'The Hobbit' and 'Lord of the Rings'. Alan Lee of course, went forward from his fame as an illustrator of Tolkien's works to being a major artistic consultant on Peter Jackson's three Lord of The Rings Tolkien films.

The supplying of Limited Edition prints etc to customers of the site has always been handled by Artists UK and in January 2004 Artists UK purchased Abandon Art. We aim to grow the site and display more great works by major artists as well as hopefully making some of the currently unavailable Limited Editions available again.

You might want to save this page to your favourites as most of the new prints, posters, books etc get a mention on here.
