Instigated a number of years ago by some of the top art dealers in the country, the Society was originally designed as a collaborative venture.
The power of the co-operative ensures that we are able to offer a wide range of quality stock which has been acquired at the best possible rates. This is reflected in the attractive pricing of the works offered through our associate galleries. This enables first time buyers to start collections with works of superior quality. For those wanting to add to their existing collections we are able to source paintings of particular interest through our extensive contacts in the art market.
At its simplest, the term society refers to a large group of people sharing their own culture and institutions. A society, then, is a network of relationships between people. The English word society is derived from the French société, which, in turn, had its origin in the Latin societas, a "friendly association with others," from socius meaning "companion, associate, comrade or business partner." Thus, the meaning of society is closely related to what is considered to be social. Implicit in the meaning of society is that its members may share some mutual concern or interest, a common objective or common characteristics.
