Clifton Contemporary Art is a well-established gallery in the heart of Clifton Village, Bristol, showing a range of painting, sculpture, ceramics, original print work and jewellery, with a strong emphasis on West Country and Bristol artists.
We represent a carefully selected group of talented creative people, providing an intimate space and an evocative location for their work. Regular themed exhibitions throughout the year keep the mix fresh and inspiring, while a personal, knowledgeable and non-salesy approach helps create our unique personality.

Works on Paper by Vyvyan Hope-Scott
We’re delighted to welcome Bristol artist Vyvyan Hope-Scott, whose evocative works on paper are rooted in 20th Century abstraction, but also inspired by landscape, architecture and engineered structures. Using the dramatic simplicity of black and white, or earthy tones that contain iron powder, Vyvyan creates palpable depth and tension: a balance between strength and fragility which he often finds in the slowly decaying monuments to industry around the docks in his home city.
