Welcome to The Horner Gallery
The Horner Gallery was originally established
in 1989 and is situated conveniently at the very centre of Northern Ireland
on the Old Hillhead road where the Belfast, Derry, Bellaghy and Magherafelt
roads intersect. The Georgian House and Gallery which was developed by
the present owners rests in a secluded setting within the wild and vibrant
Moyola Forest at Castledawson.
Now considered one of Ireland's leading contemporary art galleries, the
Horner Gallery has built a reputation of representing the work of Irish
and International painters and printmakers in a wide variety of styles.
Visitors to the Gallery can enjoy original work in Oils, Acrylics, Watercolours,
Pastels and Mixed Media as well as Artists' prints. Liam Horner has made
a special effort to promote the public's appreciation of the value of
work by artists through techniques of Etching, Acquatint, Relief Print,
Screen Print and Collograph. His belief is that once viewers realise the
difference between "Artist's Print" and "Reproduction" it can open up
a whole world of enjoyment thus allowing them to begin to collect original
artwork at very affordable prices.

In general the owners of the gallery would reject the growing trend for collectors to buy "names" rather than art work. The consultation services allows clients to acquire valuable work which Liam Horner is happy to source based on considerations such as size, colour, subject matter or style with the guarantee that the main criterion will be quality throughout.
QUALITY PICTURE FRAMING

Service which has built up a reputation of trust and satisfaction with
our many customers over the years. This is an area where experience
is essential for the best results so that work is secure and attractive
not just for the present but with the future always in mind. Conservation
quality is recommended for original art work.
