After the great ‘success’ of running an art fair in Feb/March Art 15 (The Global Art Fair) are moving to May.
Just after Frieze New York and before Art Basel but filling the gap made by Art Basel HK moving to March.
Personally I think after New York people are gonna want to rest before Basel.
Anyway press release below:

London’s Global Art Fair to Take Place 21st – 23rd May 2015
(Preview: Wednesday 20 May)Following two successful editions, Art15 London, the capital’s global art fair, is delighted to announce that it will move to May dates from 2015. The date change from February takes into account a number of factors including Chinese New Year 2015 and the new timing of Art Basel in Hong Kong. The show dates for Art15 London have been confirmed as 21 – 23 May 2015 (Preview: Wednesday 20 May 2015), returning to Olympia in Kensington, West London. Positioned at the start of the London Summer season, Art15 London will be the stand out UK art event in May.
Tim Etchells, Founder, Art15 London commented: “We are delighted to have secured a time in May for the Fair to take place each year. This is a great time to be in London and a convenient point in the busy international art calendar for gallerists, collectors, museum directors and curators to travel to the capital.”
Stephanie Dieckvoss, Fair Director, Art15 London added: “Following positive sales and strong visitor figures at the first two editions of the Fair, we are excited to stage Art15 London at a time when London is at its best. A key component of the Fair is its international scope and the new dates will enable us to continue to work with galleries from across the globe”.
