Check the current edition
The organiser publishes dates, venue, exhibitors and programmes on the official site. Photo London was founded in 2015; current information should take precedence over accounts of earlier Somerset House editions.
Research galleries and artists
Build a shortlist by medium, period, artist and curatorial question. Ask galleries for the presentation focus and the right person to meet before the fair.
Plan collector and institutional meetings
State the purpose of each introduction and who will attend. Leave space to view presentations rather than turning every conversation into a rapid exchange.
Coordinate talks and media
Artist talks, awards, book activity and press moments can support a visit when they match the brief. Confirm access and arrival arrangements separately.
Keep professional roles clear
Gallery relations, institutional introductions, brand partnerships and guest coordination require different briefs. Access support concerns participation and meetings; specialist collection advice belongs in a separate professional process.
