About the European Network of CHEAPART Exhibitions

CHEAPART is a Network of Exhibitions that extends to 5 European major cities. It’s immediate objective is to showcase artwork from the contemporary art scene, to develop and associate creative links among other cities and countries, to present contemporary art to a wider public by collaborating with artists, curators and institutions.

CHEAPART was established in 1995 as a trading model among artists, a cultural get together for exchanging artwork. Artists have the opportunity to experiment with their ideas and market their work, while the public is indulged in the creative process as an active part of evolution of the show.

For more than 20 years (since 1995) CHEAPART has reached out to thousands of art lovers, establishing a direct bond among artists and the public. In so, it is feasible for both art lovers and the general public to acquire an original work of art.

CHEAPART is a cultural economic and social platform with multiple benefits.
Artists perceive CHEAPART as a communication platform to introduce new concepts and develop social connections and future partnerships. Buyers in return, gain ownership of original art works at a low fixed price that artists may sell for high prices outside the context of the exhibition. The direct contact that develops among the public and the artist increases the level of understanding of contemporary art.

CHEAPART. CYPRUS introduces an updated market model, an open cultural dialogue for everyone to be part of.
