Tour of Collect Art Fair & Omega Fund 25/26 Acquisitions Meeting (27 February 2025)

We will attend the preview of the 20th edition of Collect, the London art fair focused on contemporary and historical art, design and craft. Participating galleries represent thirty countries from across the globe, including the UK, Asia, Africa, America, Europe and Middle East. We will attend guided tours with specialists who will share their knowledge and provide a perspective on the artworks, ranging from textiles and new materials to glass and ceramics, jewellery and precious metal work to large-scale installations. After the morning’s exploration, we will have lunch in a restaurant nearby. For the afternoon session, the 25/26 crafts acquisitions cohort will have a meeting in a private room at Somerset House. This will be a great opportunity to discuss ideas and proposals, fostering exchange among peers.
