Now in it’s fifth year Moniker Art Fair has earned a reputation as one of the most exciting, international contemporary art fairs. It has grown significantly since 2010 both in terms of audience and relevance – the fair attracts more than 12,000 visitors over its four day duration.
Held from 16–19 October during London’s busiest arts and culture week, Moniker Art Fair spotlights emerging and established talent, celebrating a generation of artists at the forefront of a unique contemporary art movement. The fair attracts some of the most talked about artists, galleries and collectors from the finer side of the street art movement and its related subcultures.
Garnering a reputation for the dedicated artist project spaces, and defying the typical constraints of the regular Art Fair format, Moniker Art Fair has become renowned for delivering a rich and varied programme of highly curated, experiential and immersive gallery spaces, live artwork, events, talks and workshops. Staying true to the artist’s vision, this expressive and immersive approach sets Moniker apart by offering partner galleries and artists more opportunity for experimentation.
Moniker Art Fair will also include:
Artist Talks
A series of curated talks offering an insight into artists work, art market advice from experts as well as relevant topics that draw from the experience of leading curators.
