SAY HELLO TO THE TEAM

Page 3: Affordable Art Fair, Fair Guide Spring 2012

Hello, and welcome to the Affordable Art Fair! There’s nothing quite like strolling through Batter-sea Park on a crisp spring day, especially when it’s towards the Affordable Art Fair marquee – brimming, as ever, with a whole host of wonderful works of art. Before you enter though, be sure to take a moment to take in the sense of calm that Battersea Park is blessed with. It wasn’t always this way: the area used to be a rather popular spot for duelling, and apparently the fi rst ever football game was played here back in 1864. Who knew!

But today it’s home to the Affordable Art Fair, and this March is going to be a cracker. For this issue of the Fair Guide, we’re going behind the scenes to fi nd out what it’s like to exhibit at the fair. We’ve followed three galleries – Hybrid, Coombe Gal-lery and Marine House at Beer – on their jour-neys up from different parts of Devon. From the planning stages months in advance to the return home, it’s a tale of late nights, adrenaline and, for one lucky gallerist, a memorable encounter with Joanna Lumley. What a tough old life it is as an art dealer...

Elsewhere, we’re also delighted to welcome the return of online art community jotta, who have once again curated an emerging artist showcase right at the front of the marquee. This time they’re exploring the idea of value in art, and with the recent record-breaking auctions at Christie’s (including a Francis Bacon for a whopping £21 million), this couldn’t be more perfectly timed.

On the topical note, we’re also looking at the way the art world is responding to the digital revolu-tion. David Hockney’s iPad drawings are the most high-profi le example of this, but lots of other art-ists are also utilising the potential of new techno-logical breakthroughs to produce some amazing works of art. At the Affordable Art Fair, there are a number of galleries showing works that demon-strate the versatility of digital printing.

For our friends on Facebook, we ran a pre-fair competition inviting our visitors to share their pride in their purchases with us. We really wanted to know what it was that moved you to purchase a piece of original art, why you loved it, and what art brought to your lives and your homes. Many of the responses have been truly uplifting. Even though the competition is now over, we’d love to hear from you – what you bought and why you love it – so do join in by ‘liking’ us on Facebook.

Enjoy the fair!

There’s no doubt about it, we live in digital times. Television’s much publicised digital change-over is of course approaching fast, but already Brit-ons apparently now spend an average of one whole day a month online, whilst no less than 30 million of us are registered on Facebook – that’s half the population!

In some ways, the move away from analogue is a saddening development – certainly Tacita Dean’s elegant installation in the Turbine Hall at Tate Modern argues persuasively for the continuing power of fi lm in the face of the digital revolution. But on the other hand, many artists are embrac-ing the possibilities that new technology offers us, exploiting its potential to produce new and inno-vative works.

Artists are an inquisitive bunch, and art has long sought to position itself on the cutting edge of technological developments. The history of art is

packed with examples of artists experimenting with the new: the invention of photography in the 1820s, for example, led to a proliferation of artistic interest in this new-fangled process. A few years earlier, Romantic poet and artist William Blake even invented his very own form of relief etching in order to give life to his unique visions. Whilst painting and drawing have remained relatively unchanged for centuries, it’s in Blake’s fi eld – printmaking – that technological advance-ments are most obviously felt. Digital printing is simply the latest in a long line of developments that has, over the years, encom-passed the invention of engraving by 15th century German gold-smiths, and playwright Alois Senefelder’s fortuitous invention of lithography in 1796.

Artistic printmaking falls into broadly two categories: ‘re-lief’ (where the ink covers the protruding surfaces of the plate – the areas untouched by the artist); and ‘intaglio’ (where the ink fi lls the recessed areas, incised from the plate by the artist). Intaglio techniques in-clude engraving, etching and drypoint – which you can try out for yourself at our printmak-ing workshops, whilst relief printing includes woodcut and linocut. Other techniques include screenprinting, where the ink is pushed through a screen, a process made famous by the Pop Art imagery of Andy Warhol.

But less important than the exact process are the different effects associated with different printing

PRINTS, AND THE DIGITAL REVOLUTION

Page 5: Affordable Art Fair, Fair Guide Spring 2012

techniques. A famous example is that of Albrecht Durer who produced only three drypoint prints before abandoning the technique in favour of the woodblocks for which he is still perhaps best known. Meanwhile, Picasso, Matisse and Miro all favoured lithographs – a technique well-suited to map-making and one that MC Escher is often considered to have mastered. Blake’s decision to invent a new technique of his own just shows how important the different effects can be.

This is where the digital print fi ts in, a con-

cept which can cause confusion.

What exactly is a digi-tal print and how does it differ from a reproduction? Fortu-

nately it’s actually quite simple. If a print

was designed by the artist using some form of computer software

it then classifi es as digital art, sometimes referred to as a giclée or giclée print. Perhaps

the most high-profi le recent example is David Hockney,

whose colour-saturated iPad drawings of the countryside

around his native Yorkshire have drawn huge crowds to the Royal Academy of Arts.

Like an engraving or a screen-print, choosing to use digital tools

is simply a question of technique, with each pro-cess bestowing its own unique characteristics on the fi nished works. Hockney’s iPad works, for example, have a fl atness to them, which distin-guishes them from his ‘handmade’ drawings or paintings. Even so, sometimes the results can fool even the artist who produced them: “sometimes I

get so carried away,” Hockney has said, “I wipe my fi ngers at the end thinking that I’ve got paint on them.”

The key thing to remember is that, like any other method of printing, this kind of digital print is an original work, not a reproduction. A reproduction is simply a copy of an already existing work of art, like a poster for example. But things can get a little complicated because sometimes these copies are numbered and signed by the artist. Thankfully, the Affordable Art Fair is proud to promote only original art, so no such reproductions are ever on display here.

At this year’s instalment of the fair, a host of galler-ies are showing work that explores the possibilities of the digital revolution. jotta, My Life in Art, Outline Editions and Eyestorm are all at the forefront of this development in contemporary art. Eyestorm, and jotta exist primarily online, whilst over at GAS Gallery one to keep an eye open for is Delphine Lebourgeois. She produces high quality digital prints on etching paper. Limited to editions of just 20, these bright and elegantly mysterious works combine the exciting possibilities of digital print-ing with an aesthetic of timeless beauty.

Meanwhile, Bayly Shelton questions our precon-ceptions with his series entitled ‘This is Not a Painting’. At fi rst glance the works are charac-teristically ‘painterly’, but they are in fact screen-prints – a medium still largely associated with the immediacy of Pop Art. Interestingly though, unlike most prints, each of these is a unique object – just like a painting.

This being an art fair of course, all of these works are for sale, and because the artists on show are largely in the early stages of their careers, they stand a good chance of increasing in value. In that regard of course, the fi nal decision regarding the complex nature of value is all yours.

Launched in September 2008 in association with Central Saint Martins and University of the Arts London, jotta is an award-winning community of practising artists, designers and other creative types. jotta exists online in the form of jotta.com as well as offl ine through various events, exhibitions and specially commissioned projects.

jottaContemporary is the branch of jotta that focuses on promoting current students or recent graduates. To fi nd out more about jotta’s art advisory and exhi-bition services visit contemporary.jotta.com.

SUM OF SUBSTANCE CURATED BY JOTTA

In some ways there’s no better time to explore the idea of value in the art world – so soon after Christie’s record-smashing week of auctions in February – and there’s certainly no better place than an art fair. How does one put a price on a work of art? What other values – ethical, political, historical – can art convey?

These are the questions being asked right now by contemporary arts organisation, jotta, who have curated an exhibition of work by recent graduates at the very front of the Affordable Art Fair mar-quee. Entitled ‘Sum of Substance’, the exhibition features work across a range of media – painting, sculpture, ceramics, digital prints – by a host of the most promising young artists in the country.

These may be young artists but they’re already making names for themselves. Lisa Selby has shown her strange sculptural constructions at La Scatola Gallery and Sara Hibbert has exhib-ited at Hoxton Art Gallery (both in London’s East End); whilst Georgina McNamara was featured in the prestigious New Contemporaries; and Joanna Mires has had work displayed at both the Zabludowicz Collection and the Victoria and Albert Museum.

A running theme is the fusion of popular culture with the traditional values of art history, and is particularly evident in the works of Solveig Einars-dottir and Joey Holder. Einarsdottir presents a Mr Whippy ice-cream made out of the kind of plas-ter more associated with Rococo interiors, whilst Holder combines oils with enamels and spray paint with eye-popping results.

COMPARE THE MEERKAT!With so many galleries vying for your attention, the art world now offers more choice than ever. And whether your budget is £40 or £4,000 there really is something for everyone. With so much choice you’re in a very strong position to shop around so take your time. Top tip: bring a note book and a pen.

EDITIONSIf you’re a fi rst timer, buying an editioned artwork, be it a print or a sculpture, can offer a very afford-able entry point. Always enquire as to the size of an edition as sometimes this information is not ex-plicit. As a general rule of thumb, the smaller the edition the better.

TRUST YOUR GUTYou don’t need to be Jamie Oliver to know that when you see food that looks good, the chances are it tastes good. By the same token you don’t need to be Charles Saatchi to spot a great work of art. If a piece of art speaks to you there are probably a number of reasons why, so try and explore them. Perhaps it’s the execution, the tech-nique, the medium, the subject or the message that strikes a chord. In some instances you may not know why you’re drawn to a particular work and in our experience this element of mystery has led to some of our favourite acquisitions. Like any leap of faith, acting upon your instinct takes cour-age, so be brave!

LOVE ART LONDON’S GUIDE TO COLLECTING

Page 11: Affordable Art Fair, Fair Guide Spring 2012

IMPULSE & INSTINCTDon’t confuse the two. Impulsive decisions are based on superfi cial information and can come back to bite you. Instinct on the other hand is the nagging feeling you have deep down that tells you if something is a good idea or a bad idea. Take your time and trust your instincts - more often than not they’re right.

LOVE FIRST, INVESTMENT SECONDFocusing entirely on investment potential can be exhausting and bleed the passion from your col-lecting experience. When you splash out on a new pair of limited edition Christian Louboutins you don’t give a hoot that their value depreciates as soon as they’re out of the box. The reason you buy them is because you can’t bear to leave them in the shop. That said, when in twenty years time you discover your killer heels are highly collectable and worth ten times the price you paid, you’ll prob-ably jump for joy. Buying art is a fun, emotionally rewarding and fascinating journey.

TALK, TALK, TALKGalleries love talking to new people about their artists – if they don’t then something’s up! And like anything in life it’s easy to spot someone speak-

ing from the heart and someone trying to make a quick buck. Finding out as much as you can about an artist is crucial, but don’t just read the jargon-saturated press release, speak to a human be-ing. Any gallerist worth their salt will be able to tell you lots of interesting personal stuff about the art-ist’s life and practice, where they work, if they’ve won awards or prizes, where they studied, what they’re currently working on and what they had for breakfast. Also, don’t be afraid to ask for advice on framing, delivery and installation too, galleries are there to help. Remember you’re the customer so ask as many questions as you like!

THE HORSE’S MOUTHJoin one of Love Art London’s eye-opening egg timer tours at the Affordable Art Fair and we’ll introduce you to a handpicked selection of 10 galleries in 1 hour. Each gallery has just 5 minutes to inspire you – with one eye on the egg timer there’s no time to waffl e, making this a fun and highly informative whistle-stop tour.

As the name suggests, the most important thing about the Affordable Art Fair is the art. But in some ways, it’s also just as much about the people; not only the artists whose creativity and imagination produces all the wonderful works on show, but also the gallerists, many of whom travel far and wide to bring the art they love to people who, hopefully, will love it too.

Among the 120 or so galleries who have come from as far away as Europe and Canada to take part in this instalment of the fair are three who have made the journey up to London from Devon. For Jacqueline Hollister, last year’s trip to Batter-sea (seated high up in a big van) was something of a homecoming, as Hybrid – the gallery she runs with Tim Woolgar – was previously based on Co-lumbia Road in East London. They’ve now been open for six years in the market town of Honiton, famous for its many antique shops, and have shown at the Affordable Art Fair Bristol for the past three years.

For them the process of exhibiting starts long be-fore the fair itself. “We have an idea of our core of

artists to show from a year in advance,” explains Jacqueline, “but we start planning in earnest from January.” This involves working closely with their three main artists, Richard Adams, Irene Jones and Rachel Ross, all of whom paint works espe-cially for the fair, treating it, Jacqueline says, “like an exhibition”.

Jacqueline and Tim aren’t the only ones making the long drive from that part of the world. Mark Riley and team also journey up in a van, the four of them squashed in together, crosswords in hand to while away the hours. Mark runs Coombe Gal-lery in Dartmouth, an area of outstanding natural beauty, that he admits they’re “very fortunate” to live in. They’ve been showing at the Affordable Art Fair for seven years now, and look to bring a broad range of work with them to each fair – from paintings to ceramics – but that variety can

make the whole packing process a little tricky. “It’s a nightmare!” Mark admits, joking that he sometimes wishes they only brought “one wall-based artist with all work done in only three sizes on nice lightweight canvas, but where’s the chal-lenge in that?”

Meanwhile Mike Lambert has been showing at Affordable Art Fair since the fair’s second year, and in that time has clearly got this aspect of proceed-ings down to a T. “We use re-usable silver bags, which make life much easier, and a local courier service to deliver to the show and collect after the show.” The sensible-sounding Mike runs Marine House at Beer, located in a beautiful fi shing village on the Jurassic Coast. Last year saw Mike sell his 1,000th picture at the Affordable Art Fair, Battersea Park – quite some achievement!

Like Mark, he too understands the importance of variety, aiming to offer “a wide selection of styles, sizes and price.” Part of this focus on range is due to the diversity of people who visit the Affordable Art Fair and the range of tastes found in a city as large as London. Mike observes, for example,

that “strongly abstract work often popular in Lon-don is very much a minority interest here in De-von.” Mark agrees: “there is defi nitely less scope for abstract art in Dartmouth.”

Once in London, the gallerists largely head straight to Battersea to set up their stands (a process which generally takes from the Tuesday lunchtime to late Wednesday afternoon) before going their separate ways. Mark stays with friends in Notting Hill, whilst Jacqueline does the same in Pimlico. “All we really do there,” she says, “is fl op and sleep!” Which is hardly surprising as it’s clearly a hectic week. “It’s a very social time,” she

continues. “Not only do customers visit us to catch up, but friends come along and artists too. They’ll stay on and we’ll go and eat and chew the cud after the day’s close. There’s lots of late nights, high adrenaline and exhaustion.”

But it’s all worth it – for what Mike terms “the buzz”.

This is the time, for all three, when the im-portance of people comes to the fore. “We send out many invitations to regu-lars,” Mike says, “and

it’s a real pleasure meeting them every year.” Mark agrees. “It’s fun, defi nitely. Plus,

renewing old acquain-tances and seeing what’s

new on the scene is inspir-ing.” Similarly, for Jacqueline,

“It’s great to talk with people when they fall in love with a work and share our pas-sion for a particular artist’s vision of the world.”

And in some cases, there’s an extra-special re-ward. Tim’s fair last year at Battersea was enliv-ened even more than usual by Joanna Lumley’s ar-rival at the Hybrid stand, drawn in by one of Rachel Ross’ exquisite paintings of spoons. Apparently, according to Jacqueline, after a brief chat with the much-loved actress, Tim was left “grinning, and just saying she smelt lovely!”

Star encounters aside, the Affordable Art Fair must be a tiring time for the exhibitors. Whilst visitors can happily trot home at the end of a day at the fair, gallerists are here for the best part of a week. By the time Mark gets back home to Dartmouth, he admits to feeling “tired physically after the long drive, but buzzing with ideas and contacts for the year ahead.”

Jacqueline and Tim often don’t get home until midnight or later on the Sunday night: “we load as quickly as possible but somehow we’re always one of the last to leave!” And then it’s time for a well-earned rest: “we give ourselves a few days off, we need it, we are both absolutely exhausted.”
