From 6th October, galleries from across the globe will come together
for Art London’s annual event to present carefully curated
exhibitions of both blue-chip historical and contemporary art works.
As well as London-based and UK galleries, an exciting international
focus will be brought by galleries showing artists from Europe,
Australia and the United States. This year, the cultural dynamism
brought by galleries representing Asia and the Middle East will also
give an added dimension to the already buzzing art scene found at
Art London.
Known for its success in attracting new and young buyers as well as
established collectors, works exhibited at Art London range in
price, medium and notoriety. From stands specialising in historical
works with paintings by Camille Pissarro and sculptures by Jacob
Epstein to new and unusual installations, photography and mixed
media works by emerging contemporary artists, there is sure to be no
shortage of variety for London’s art lovers.
In 2010, Art London attracted over 16,200 visitors and was described
by The Times as “one of the most enjoyable modern art fairs”.
Country and Town House magazine similarly raved about the fair
stating “...appealing largely to serious collectors who like to buy
from galleries they trust. Art London is a grown-up affair”.
This year's fair welcomes historical works by well known blue-chip
Modern British artists such as LS Lowry, Graham Sutherland, Lynn
Chadwick and Jacob Epstein, as well as by artists of an earlier
vintage including Augustus John and Alfred Munnings. Renowned
international artists represented include Camille Pissarro,
Marialuisa Tadei - a recent participant in the Venice Biennale - and
French designer Noart, who was highly acclaimed in Paris earlier
this year.
