Collect is one of the world’s leading art fairs for contemporary craft and design having been established in 2004 by the Crafts Council.
Collect brings together international gallerists, expert in their fields, to showcase and sell work by living contemporary craft artists. Much of the work is made especially for the fair and soon finds new homes in private and public collections around the world.
At a time when the pandemic is preventing us from coming together, a physical fair will not take place at Somerset House where we held a very successful Collect 2020.
Instead, Artsy.net will be the exclusive host of Collect in 2021. Each exhibiting gallery will have their own online 'booth' to display their artists' work for sale.
In addition, a blend of free digital and virtual events, talks and tours from leading gallerists, artists, and leading figures across art, fashion and culture will take place on the Crafts Council's own channels from the 26 February to 2 March. The fair will then remain on Artsy. net until the 26 March giving buyers a longer opportunity to purchase work.
There are 30 galleries confirmed to date including from the U.S, Thailand, France, Hong Kong, Netherlands, South Korea, Norway, China, Germany and the UK.
