London Art Fair 2022: Stand 5

20 - 24 April 2022

We are thrilled to announce a continuing female curatorial project. This initiative was created through the prestigious and well-known Young Masters Art Prize to support women artists in the precarious post-pandemic times.  Focus On The Female: London Art Fair Edit  is acontinuation of this new strand of our not-for-profit activity aimed to support the artists.  

 

This year Cynthia Corbett Gallery and Young Masters Art Prize have been invited to do a special curated presentation at London Art Fair 2022. We will be at Stand 5, across the hall from the Fair's Museum partner, the New Hall Art Collection, a collection of Modern and Contemporary Art by women at Murray Edwards College, University of Cambridge – the largest of its kind in Europe, and second largest in the world. To keep the Focus On The Female narrative continuing, we have curated an all-woman showcase unpacking the oeuvre of sixteen women artists: Gallery-represented, YMAP alumnae and artists new to the Gallery.

We are also delighted to be part of Platform, a curated section featuring invited galleries presenting artists whose work aligns to a single distinct theme. This year's theme is Music, and our curation will highlight the oeuvre of British-Irish ceramicist, professor, curator & textile artist Matt Smith and British-American painter, collagist and photographer Andy Burgess.
