Hi Sven
The exhibition is of his "backpackers" paintings, portraits of backpackers against plain backgrounds (which personally I don't like as they have none of the magical quality of most of his other works) - except for one cityscape which was quite lovely.

Things like this:

Yes, all are for sale - contact the gallery for more information. They have a price list with thumbnails of all the paintings which I'm sure they'd be happy to send you. I was (and still am) sorely tempted to buy one of the works - if only I had any space on my walls...
