Exhibition visit: Photo London at Somerset House

Join your fellow art photography enthusiasts for a visit to this amazing art fair at Somerset House. Photo London is our city's answer to Paris Photo - the huge international art fair dedicated to art photography. Its London counterpart is smaller (but growing steadily), and it is a vital part of pushing the idea of photography as collectible art, especially to the rather conservative UK art market.

ART PHOTOGRAPHY:
Photo London is a great place to see prints from our historical photo heroes up close. Usually there are galleries trading in the big names that never go out of fashion - Cartier Bresson, Ansel Adams, David Bailey, Sarah Moon etc. The big tent in the courtyard is usually where we find the best contemporary photography, with huge prints in elaborate frames that sell for silly money. Smaller galleries can be found along the many corridors and basements, and they give you an indication of where the emerging photopgraphers are heading.

TICKETS:
Entry is £32.00 via this link:

You must buy your ticket before arrival, otherwise it eats into our time together.
The exhibition is open 14 - 18 May, so you can go another day if you prefer - but I hope you will join us so that we can share our thoughts.
