Art Market Academy

An evening panel discussion will take place on Tuesday 30 October at the Fine Art Society, 148 New Bond Street, London W1.

The speakers will be Georgina Adam, Chris Ingram and Thomas Woodham-Smith and their subject will be art fairs. The discussion will be invigilated by Charlie Hall and Sophie Macpherson.

With the explosion in new art fairs in recent years, has the art world become overloaded? Are we suffering from oversaturation? Is it sustainable? Has it helped make collecting art more accessible for everyone?

6.45pm: drinks and canapés
7.30pm: panel discussion and questions from the floor
