The return of the Affordable Art Fair to Battersea Park is fast approaching with a stellar list of exhibiting galleries.

Thousands of artworks in all styles, genres and mediums will be on display as more than 100 galleries from around the world exhibit at the event.

Here is just a handful of top galleries bringing the best, most exciting contemporary artwork to the Battersea fair.

Portal Painters | London, UK

A West London gallery that has been exhibiting finely detailed figurative paintings for over fifty years. In Mayfair's Grafton Street, its founders championed "the figurative and the quirky in painting" and the gallery became known for its unpretentious attitude and special group of painters, including Beryl Cook whose humorous seaside paintings found homes in collections all over the world, including Jackie Collins and Yoko Ono.

Woolff Gallery | London, UK

Established by Nick Woolff in 2000 to "make the art-buying process as simple and enjoyable for you as possible", this London based gallery is the place to get your hands on a piece by LoveJordan - the collaborative work of artists Jonny Love and Samuel Jordan that has become instantly recognisable for their series of multicoloured bottles.

Patrick Boyd's 'Moon Landing'.

Woolff Gallery is also home to Patrick Boyd, whose colourful scenes are laced with humour and often present a light-hearted take on current affairs such as 'Panic buying' which illustrates a couple wheeling a shopping trolley full of loo roll across the globe. Others celebrate historical moments such as the Moon Landing (pictured).

Studio 84 West | Ojai, USA

Established in 1987, Studio 84 West represents artists from around the United States, continually updating a portfolio of 15 to 20 fine artists who work in a variety of mediums, including paper, canvas and 3-dimensional.
