Not sure about you, but right now is a very exciting period for me. Yes, it is that time of the year when London gets very busy with a multitude of art fairs.
On one hand, you have the well established or ever growing in popularity ones such as Frieze, which has 160 of the worlds leading contemporary art galleries exhibiting. On the other hand, there are several smaller ones, yet just as exciting. They are often run by independent artists in incongruous venues but with a common factor: a great atmosphere, and creativity all around.
We have listed below what is a non exhaustive list, but hopefully a useful one…. so enjoy, and see you around!
