Africa 900 Miles from Anywhere
This site offers you the opportunity to view some of our specially
selected and authentic works of art from Africa. We specialise
in Shona stone sculpture, decore, wood carving, artifacts, and
also specially commissioned corporate & architectural pieces.
In breaking free from the accepted images of ancient tribal art and craft, the Shona Sculptor invites you, and I to view these carvings and sculptures with an open heart and mind and take whatever significance and beauty we can into our lives. Surely this is the purpose of ART.

"This art has meaning. This art is imbued with extraordinary, intense spirituality. It will get in you and work on you forever." Frank McEwen, First Director, National Gallery of Zimbabwe.
The exceptional Quality of the displays at the Africa 900 Gallery suitably presents the highest standard of the Art and craft produced by African Artists. The fabulous Sculptures are truly remarkable and will add a wonderful feature to any room or display.
"Now that Henry Moore is dead, who is the greatest stone carver in the world? In my experience there are three outstanding contenders. And all three come from Zimbabwe." Michael Shepherd, Art Review.
