The Other Art Fair – Meet + Buy Direct From The Artists

Over 100 emerging artists have been selected to exhibit at this years fair by a committee of contemporary art experts comprised of Ben Quilty (Artist), Roslyn Oxley (Roslyn Oxley9 Gallery, Sydney), Amanda Love (Art Consultant) and Leif Podhajsky (Graphic Artist).

Presented by Saatchi Art, ‘The Other Art Fair’ is an Australia and UK’s exhibition targeted towards the new generation of art buyers. A place where you can meet and buy direct from the best emerging and undiscovered artists – carefully selected by a committee of art industry experts – with artworks offered for sale from as little as $100.

“‘The Other Art Fair’ is specifically designed to breakdown the many barriers to entry for both artist and collector by perfectly bridging the gap to make it easier and more to buy art. By purchasing art at the fair, visitors directly support emerging talent and contribute to growing the opportunities for undiscovered artists in Australia,” commented Fair Director, Laura Richardson.

Established in the UK, ‘The Other Art Fair’ has presented more than twelve pioneering editions in the past five years. The launch of the fair in Sydney in September 2015 cemented the fair on to a bustling international stage with thousands of art lovers welcomed through the doors of Central Park, Chippendale to view artwork by 80 handpicked exhibiting artists.

As part of its partnership with ‘The Other Art Fair’, Saatchi Art will present Invest in Art 2016, a portfolio of 15 of the Australia’s most promising art graduate artists whose works will be available to discover and acquire for the first time at the Sydney fair.

More than 100 of Australia’s most talented emerging artists have been announced to take part in ‘The Other Art Fair Sydney’, enabling them to connect directly with collectors to sell their work. The line up of artists has been announced by a high profile local selection committee, which Richardson says “select artists based on their merit rather than experience, social status, gender, ethnicity or their financial position.”

Artists presenting at ‘The Other Art Fair 2016’ include: Chrysa Koukoura, Celeste Wrona, Mark Collis, Ben Hosking, Joe Helmore, Sarah Beetson, Timothy Jones, Bianca Beetson, Martine Vanderspuy, Chocolate Einstein, and Kirsten Jackson, representing a range of mediums including painting, resin, photography and illustration.

‘The Other Art Fair Sydney 2016’ will host Australian guest artist Sarah Contos from Roslyn Oxley9 Gallery.  Sarah Contos will offer visitors the opportunity to purchase one of 500 limited edition signed printed artworks for around $100 created exclusively for the fair. Higher priced larger scale works by Sarah Contos will also be available to acquire from the Roslyn Oxley9 Gallery stand at the Fair.
