London Art Fair

17/1/2013

Yesterday, I was given a complementary ticket to visit the #London #Art #Fair which I was naturally very excited about. Whilst I had visited in previous years without seeing any alternative photography, this seem to have been the best year yet with walls adorned with #Photograms by #Adam #Fuss, represented by the #Robin #Katz #Fine #art #gallery and #Susan #Derges represented by #Purdy #Hicks gallery. Both artist featured in the the #VAM: #Shadow #Catches #exhibition in 2010/2011.

Also #tinted #ambrotypes and #decaying #emulsion negatives by #Tessa #Traeger also represented by #Purdy #Hicks gallery. Some beautiful #Cyanotypes by #Henriette #Mollinaro, #Tintypes #collodion #plates by #David #Gillanders and finally a series of #pinhole #photography by #Antonia #Bruce entitled #Horse #Latitudes. So if your as passionate about alternative photography as me this is definitely the year to go to the #London #Art #Fair.

Nice one Natalie. I havent been to one for yonks. Last one I went to was in Battersea Park and I was totally overwhelmed by the rubbish quality of the 'ART?'
It seemed like it was set up by people who know nothing about art except that you can fool a lot of people with it and take a vast percentage from the artist.

I totally know what you mean, its even worse when you part with close to £25 for entry. What happen to "Art for all" !

I was pleasantly surprised by the London Art fair, but only downfall which can also be seen as a plus, was it was vast! There were so many galleries and I over heard someone say that one of the sections were reserved for artist own galleries which I thought was interesting. Anyway that's enough plugging from me. Thanks for commenting Mik
