WORKSHOPS, TALKS & TOURS
There’s a real buzz around Battersea this year, and we’re thrilled to be back for this edition of the Affordable Art Fair. 2016 marks our seventeenth year in Battersea Park, and there’s a palpable sense of excitement building around the Power Station redevelopment, with the first phase set to be finished later this year. This weekend also marks one year since the Battersea Arts Centre fire, the aftermath of which has proven the arts community in the area to be stronger and more vibrant than ever. So, we’re delighted to be back in Battersea with another bumper edition of the fair, packed with arty delights for you to enjoy. We’re particularly excited this spring to announce the launch of Platform Projects – a series of unmissable curated installations placed throughout the fair, showcasing some of the best conceptually-led work being produced today (more details on pp. 20 – 21). Highlights include Chuck Elliott’s digital reinterpretation of fine art printmaking in the form of his 24-minute kinetic screen work, and Dorcas Casey’s colossal found-media sculptures, fresh from a stint at Banksy’s Dismaland exhibition.
As ever, you’ll find plenty of art (by an incredible 1,100 artists!) waiting to be taken to a new home too. New galleries aplenty have joined our family of exhibitors this spring, including emerging art specialists BEARSPACE, and online gallery Gala Fine Art, representing artists working with unconventional processes. Chiefs & Spirits are also making their fair debut, flying in from The Hague to present their selection of artists from Africa, Asia and the Americas. Whether you’re searching for the perfect work to bring your home to life, browsing for inspiration, or simply enjoying a family day out at the fair, we hope you’ll find plenty of ways to fall in love with art this March.

1. Clare Halifax. Power at Battersea (detail). Screenprint, edition of 75. 23 x 23cm. £150 from Rostra Gallery.
HOME IS WHERE THE ART IS The first two decades of the twenty-first century have seen more people than ever being given the opportunity to fall in love with, and collect, art. Investing in art was previously seen solely as the domain of the super-wealthy, confidently waving away millions in auction houses. However, the global explosion of art fairs and opportunities to discover work online, has presented a plethora of exciting new ways for art lovers, regardless of budget and background, to dip their toes into the market and purchase pieces for their homes.
Providing people with the opportunity to become an art collector is at the heart of the Affordable Art Fair ethos. We’ve been chatting to some of our wonderful galleries and visitors to discover why collecting art has become such a popular activity, and to find out why having original art in your home provides such a unique pleasure… Bath-based Rostra Gallery are well known for offering accessible original artworks, and are firm Affordable Art Fair favourites. For Gallery Manager Rebecca Darch it is the potential to personalize a home with art that makes collecting so appealing. Rebecca introduced us to one customer, Isabel Morley, whose collection holds an intensely personal significance. Having bought three pieces from Rostra Gallery, Isabel recalls, ‘the first, by Trevor Price, reminds me of my youth – dancing around and having fun – and I see it as soon as I wake up in the morning, which instantly puts me in a good mood.’ Of the other works she says: ‘The second piece is a beautiful screen print by Graham Carter. It reminds me of the Scottish Highlands where I spent a long time working and soaking up the scenery; I could get lost in the detail of this work for hours. The third work is by Clare Halifax, of the gorgeous city of Bath where I live now. I couldn’t be happier to be surrounded by such amazing artworks every day.’

HOME IS WHERE THE ART IS
2. David O’Connor. Blue Hills. Acrylic on canvas board. 36 x 36cm. £630 from Hadfield Fine Art.
For another fair visitor, Honor Stanley, the process of buying the work was an integral, and exciting, part of becoming a collector. She recalls, ‘my husband and I bought our first piece of art at the Affordable Art Fair, having just moved in to our new home together in Battersea. We spent the whole evening at the fair, champagne in hand, going up and down the aisles looking for the perfect picture.’ She continues, ‘inevitably we found it on the last stand, as we were about to leave! The large abstract oil painting now hangs in our living room. I love it because it was the first picture (of many!) that we chose and bought together.’ Sally Coelho, founder of Cotswold-based gallery Hadfield Fine Art, agrees that collecting art can serve as a beautiful, personal reminder of a particular time in our lives. Sally says: ‘It goes without saying that art can visually transform the appearance and atmosphere of a home, but one cannot assume that art is merely decoration. There is something far more subliminal in our choices. Art is more like a personal treasure that transcends the constraints of our four walls. It can be a marker in the passage of time following us from house to house; lifting the humble surroundings of our first flat, through to our family home, then on to our later years. It can be a reflection of our personality, tastes and memories.

Sally concludes, ‘if we surround ourselves with these treasures, we transform our houses into environments in which we feel intensely comfortable, relaxed and, really truly, at home.’

IT’S A GALLERY AFFAIR At each edition of the Affordable Art Fair Battersea we welcome over 110 carefully selected galleries from across the globe to showcase the best of what their artists have to offer. Between them, these galleries represent an impressive 1,100 artists, and are dedicated to nurturing and showcasing their work to the widest possible art loving audiences. As an organisation that champions galleries, we’re frequently asked why are galleries so important to the art industry? To get the lowdown, we’ve caught up with two Affordable Art Fair galleries and their artists to get the insider info on the crucial, fascinating relationship between artist and gallerist.
1
Gala Fine Art Kate Bignold launched online gallery Gala Fine Art in 2015 and currently represents an exciting group of 11 British and Irish artists. Amongst them are Annette Pugh, who explores the relationship between photography and painting, and Clare Bonnet, who paints candid portraits of semiabstract female figures. What’s the selection procedure for the gallery? Kate: There’s no set procedure; I spend a lot of time talent spotting at open studio events, degree shows and open submission exhibitions. I might stumble across a new artist when researching an existing gallery artist or when visiting their studio. The artists I represent typically juxtapose traditional painting or photography with modern or unconventional processes; I’m always on the lookout for work that boasts a very individual creative style. As an artist, how did you first start working with the gallery? Annette: Kate saw my work at the Royal West of England Academy in Bristol and got in contact. I then set up a meeting to learn more about Kate’s intentions for Gala Fine Art, and her stable of artists. Like Kate, I’m interested in the interaction between painting and photography, so I felt we had a strong common ground for a working relationship. Clare: Kate also approached me initially,
2
having seen my work at Jamaica Street Studios in Bristol. From the word go I could see Kate had a vision for the gallery that really suited my work. It also helps that we get on well, so can be completely honest with each other. Other than representing artists work to clients, as a gallery, how else do you work with your artists? Kate: Essentially my mission is to support artists at all stages of their careers both on a practical level, by providing them with a platform to sell their work, but also on a personal and creative level, by offering encouragement and advice, and feedback about their work and its reception. Clare: We talk‌ a lot! Kate holds a genuine interest in how work is made and developed, but she also respects the creative decision-making process, so will never impose an idea. Her diplomacy skills are impeccable!
Why do you think galleries are important? Kate: Galleries, whether online – as we are – or bricks-and-mortar, play a vital role. Their support lends artists third-party credibility. Particularly in a social media age of self-publicity, gallery representation provides art collectors with a seal of approval. Galleries show their artists work to well-targeted interested audiences, and, of course, galleries shoulder the costs and administration involved in putting on exhibitions giving artists the chance to focus fully on the actual creation of the work. Clare: Kate works so hard on our behalf! My paintings are relatively large, so I always admire the fact she transports them all around the country to show for me. I also trust Kate implicity, which is important for this kind of working relationship. Being part of a gallery that represents such talent is also an honour.

IT’S A GALLERY AFFAIR
Caiger Contemporary Art Amy Caiger heads up Caiger Contemporary Art, a nomadic gallery which represents a small, carefully selected, group of contemporary artists. Amongst them are Blandine Bardeau, who uses a variety of unusual media to create her semi-abstract works, and Rod McIntosh, whose material-driven works focus on the process of mark making.
3. Blandine Bardeau. Your Smile is Beautiful and it Makes me Happy (detail). Mixed media on linen. 75 x 95cm. £1,250 from Caiger Contemporary Art. 4. Rod McIntosh. Never the Same (detail). Indian ink on mulberry paper with 24ct gold leaf. 95 x 95cm. £1,200 from Caiger Contemporary Art.
What’s the selection procedure for the gallery? Amy: We spend a lot of time researching and going to see new artists’ work. We look for something that catches our eye, and then consider how it would fit with other works in our gallery. Sometimes artists also contact us directly if they think they’d be a good fit for our gallery. Either way, the work needs to speak to us, we have to love it. Then, once we’ve spoken with the artist, and are sure we’d have a great working relationship, we’ll ask them on board. As an artist, how did you first start working with the gallery? Blandine: My meeting with Caiger Contemporary Art was through Twitter initially, in a typical 21st century fashion! After a few interactions online I looked them up and liked what I saw, so invited them to one of my shows – we chatted there and they asked me to come on board. For me, it was as much about the artists they represent as it was about the feeling I got from interacting with them; it’s important that something clicks, and that you’re on the same page I think.
Other than representing artists work to clients, as a gallery, how else do you work with your artists? Amy: We ask our artists what they are hoping to achieve each year – this may be a creative goal, or something more unusual – and we see how we can support them with this. We’re also always on hand to advise our artists whenever they need it, perhaps on a new body of work, trying out new sizes, framing or prices. We also like to plan projects that would be good for our artists to help them in other areas such as their CV or growing their reputation.
3
Blandine: We also get a lot of feedback from the gallery which I really take in to consideration. I like to hear how customers react to my work, as well as hearing Amy and her colleagues’ opinions on my new works. They understand my work very well and it’s great to talk through my plans for future pieces, as well as sizes and prices. I like that they are really approachable, that Caiger Contemporary Art is a family business – I joined close to their beginnings and there’s a real sense that we’re growing together. Rod: Likewise, I meet with the gallery regularly to review and plan. It allows me to present new ideas, get feedback and throw ambitious, wild-card ideas at them and see how we could work together to achieve them.
4
Rod: I did lots of research initially and drew up a shortlist of galleries where I felt my work could fit. From there I started to build up relationships with the gallerists and it then became more of a mutual selection process between me, them and my work.
Why do you think galleries are important? Amy: I think they’re important for both the client and the artist. For the client, we’re knowledgeable about our artists and a trustworthy source they can go to. In effect we’re giving our artists a stamp of approval – as a gallery we endorse the high standard and value of their work. We’re also there to help and advise clients on artworks, especially if they’re new to collecting or aren’t sure what would best suit their space. Galleries are important for artists as it means they can get on with what they do best, making art! We take the strain off them by marketing their work and showing it to clients. We’re also able to talk about their work with enthusiasm and without feeling self-conscious, as a lot of artists can when discussing their own work. And, of course, we’re here to help and support them in their work and career.

COLLECT LIKE AN EXPERT At the Affordable Art Fair we’re firm believers that anyone can collect art. But, for those of us who aren’t au fait with the ways of the art world, dipping your toe into the market can feel like a daunting experience. So, just how do you overcome the dreaded FOBRO (a.k.a. Fear Of Being Ripped Off), and how do you know, before you take the plunge, that the piece you’re purchasing is really the one for you? We’ve been chatting with some of our gallerists and have complied a list of things to do and questions to ask to help you collect like an expert …
that affects artwork pricing is probably the artist’s name … ask where they studied, where they currently are in their career and where they’ve shown their work recently’. 3. Embrace the unconventional Don’t buy an artwork because you think it’s what you should be buying; if an unusual work captures your imagination, go for it. As Mark Jason says, ‘on many occasions people arrive at the fair looking for something quite specific and leave with something completely different. You really don’t know what your reaction is going to be to an artwork until you see it. Who knows, you could have just spotted a future masterpiece!’ 4. Examine the materials As Diane Tuckey of Outline Editons (stand G3) says, ‘an artwork’s materials can have a big impact on pricing. For example, we’ve sold pieces by an artist which command a considerably higher price than her normal works because they were done in gold leaf – the resultant art is priced to reflect these material costs.’
1. Explore the options Explore as much as you can at the fair and get an overview of the range of artworks on offer. As Mark Jason, of Mark Jason Gallery (stand E7), explains, ‘do some research, take your time. See as much work as you can, and make a note of your top 5-10 pieces.’ Comparing works also gives you an idea of what’s available in your price range. Mark continues, ‘buy the best piece you can in your budget … sometimes it’s a case of buying a major work by a minor artist or if your budget is modest, a minor piece by a major artist.’
5. Be confident in the originality At the Affordable Art Fair all artwork on show is original, so there’s no need to worry that your investment isn’t unique. However, for limited edition prints, there are certain factors to be aware of to give you confidence in your purchase. As Angie Davey explains, ‘a limited edition print from a run of five will be valued higher than a print in an edition of 50, even if it’s the same size and by the same artist. This is because there are fewer of that particular print and it’s therefore rarer – fewer people in the world will have it.’
2. Get to know the artist One of the most exciting parts of collecting contemporary art is discovering unknown and emerging artists, and it’s important to get to know as much as you can about their status and background. As Angie Davey, Creative Director of Eyestorm (stand J12), points out, reputation is key: ‘the first factor
6. Value your personal reaction As Diane Tuckey concludes, ‘the best reason for buying an artwork is the obvious one: because you like it’. Collecting art is, ultimately, about developing and learning to trust your taste, and as Angie Davey declares, there is such a thing as ‘love at first sight when it comes to art!’

PLATFORM PROJECTS Championing contemporary artists, and providing them with a platform to showcase and develop their practice, has always been central to the Affordable Art Fair mission. So, this March, we’re thrilled to announce the launch of Platform Projects – a series of large-scale, curated installations where emerging artists meet mid-career practitioners. Platform Projects takes artwork out of the confines of the traditional art fair stand space, creating purposeful interruptions at points throughout the fair, which encourage visitors to enjoy and engage with some of the best conceptually-led work being produced today.

Fair Director Luci Noel explains the inspiration behind the showcase: ‘Platform Projects is a natural and exciting progression from the Project Space Collective, which has been a central feature at the past two editions of the Battersea Spring fair as a hub for artists breaking new ground in contemporary art. This time, we’ve further pushed the boundaries of the traditional art fair set up with the large-scale projects which really command the space, and allow visitors to explore and engage with some truly innovative, immersive and diverse work, which you may not have expected to see at an Affordable Art Fair!’
