Photo50 is an exhibition of contemporary photography and features fifty works – many for sale – this year curated by writer, broadcaster and photography curator Sue Steward. Steward’s curatorial focus is on artists whose practice sees them adorn, transform and deface the print, introducing other media and employing techniques from across the history of the medium.
An extensive programme of talks and critical debates in association with key partners, plus daily tours of the Main Fair and Art Projects, will be announced in the next few weeks. London Art Fair tickets are now on sale from www.londonartfair.co.uk at £11 (plus £1.50 booking fee) in advance, including a copy of the 2012 Fair Guide (to be collected at the Fair). Tickets on the door are £16.
