Outsiders Gallery

The Outsiders galleries made buying and collecting art accessible and affordable. Exhibiting twenty art shows and release over fifty different print editions every year via our galleries in London and Newcastle. The Outsiders was part of Lazarides Ltd, noted for the popularisation of "urban art".

Many of our artists succeeded outside of the traditional gallery system, emerging through popular fields like graffiti, design, and illustration; often self-taught, usually rejected by the art world.

We dealt with cutting-edge art, and are viewed as one of the world’s most influential galleries. You don't need a degree in art history to be engaged by the work or enjoy it on the walls of your home, and are welcome to browse the artwork in our galleries. We sold original works and print editions, the latter produced to the highest standards at our own Execution Dock studio.

Our first ever gallery space was at 8 Greek Street, Soho, and since its inception in 2006 hosted some of the first UK solo exhibitions by internationally acclaimed artists, including Banksy and Antony Micallef.

Our Newcastle gallery opened in 2007 at 77 Quayside, Newcastle and hosted shows by many of urban art’s biggest names including BÄST, Zevs, Conor Harrington and David Choe.

Both spaces have become breeding grounds for cutting edge exhibitions. The versatility of the space provides a platform for emerging artists, giving them the opportunity to showcase their talent, as well as offering more established artists the freedom to play and produce experimental exhibitions.
