Gallery Booths + Curated Hang: Artwork by Leading International Independent Printmakers
Accessibility and originality are at the heart of WCPF’s ethos. The Fair creates a welcoming environment for both aspiring collectors and seasoned art world professionals. Prints by emerging practitioners sit alongside pieces by household names, with prices starting at just £100. By bringing together both independent artists and gallery led booths, WCPF offers an entirely unique and exciting art fair experience.
The annual Curated Hang is comprised of artwork by successful applications from the International Artist Open Call. It brings high quality new and unexpected work into the Fair, while platforming independent, up-and-coming, global artists. To keep the selection completely democratic and fresh for each edition, the selection panel of industry experts changes annually, and the works are carefully reviewed individually and anonymously on a piece-by-piece basis.
