Today I went to The Other Art Fair (I am coinciding applying to do it in October). It is a showcase and selling exhibition for independent artists in London.
It was great to see such a range of work, of a high standard, in a commercial setting. Being an artist is a hard career, you have too make, advertise, sell, speak, be an artists, publisher, gallerist and manager! If anyone has done this fair, please give me your opinion of this one. I can’t find how mug it costs to do.
My favourites:
Mark Powell’s fantastic Biro Drawings (www.markpowellartist.com)
Toni Gallagher’s X-ray work, and inflatable dolls doing synchronised swimming (www.tonigallagher.com)
Ben Gooding’s intricate, yet simplistic drawings (www.bengooding.co.uk)
