FAD headed down to Photo London yesterday and if you look past all the photos of Jagger and 60’s London/Paris there’s a great selection of stuff to see. Make sure to wonder around all the nocks and crannies of Somerset House not only is this an amazing building to discover but some of the most interesting and innovative photography is hidden away.
Don’t miss the Annex or the Deadhouse but our favourite floor turned out to be the first floor.

A new work – A Simple Act of Wonder – by acclaimed artists Walter & Zoniel celebrates human connection and our experiences of joy in unprecedented times. Audiences can see it across a series of outdoor spaces across the suburbs of Brighton and via a city centre exhibition at Fabrica that is now installed but which will never be seen in real life by the public
Photo London opens this week for its fifth edition. Building on the success of its first four editions, Photo London 2019 returns to Somerset House to showcase the very best of the past, present and future of photography.
Lee Sharrock chooses her Top 5 of Photo London 2018 for FAD Magazine.
Unsurprisingly, the leading auction houses are all selling photographic work to coincide with Photo London (18-21 May). By way of a warm-up, I looked at them as exhibits rather than as potential purchases. Do they make for a good visit?
