Free Art Fair London 09, by bazzj04 on Oct 16, 2009 13:19:54 GMT 1, I dont think this has been posted if so sorry ii havent seen it , so thought id post this,
The Free Art Fair will take place for the third and final time in London in 2009 at The Barbican. The art fair where all the work is given away at the end will be the biggest best most fun version ever. For once instead of art going to the highest bidder or those who can afford it, someone who really loves an artwork will be able to have it for free. Artists participating will be asked to incorporate the idea of free into their work by making work that they always wanted to make but felt like they couldnโt.
Is anyone going along ?
What do you think of the work ?.

Free Art Fair London 09, by pezlow on Oct 18, 2009 19:22:03 GMT 1, I went along to the free art fair at the Barbican today and I have to say it was a very refreshing change. There were loads of people there admiring the art and some lucky folk who got to take some work away. I would have loved to have picked up a couple of them but sadly my name wasn't drawn out of the hat. Still it was a great day, fantastic idea and I take my hat off to Jasper Joffe for organising it all and remaining calm and good natured throughout the frantic period when they were drawing names.
My favourite piece was by Lee Johnson called the Magician's dummy. Not an artist I'd heard of before but I loved the painting.
