Curated Presentations

One of the best design events at Masterpiece London is Curated Presentations. Curated presentations are a continuing trend at the London art fair. A Salon exhibition dedicated to the work and legacy of Zaha Hadid is curated by Francis Sultana. The exhibition, courtesy of David Gill, the late architect’s longstanding gallerist, includes her first commissioned piece for the gallery, Crater Coffee Table 2007. Axel Vervoordt juxtaposes ancient Roman and Egyptian sculptural works alongside modern art and design.

 Jewellery

New jewellery exhibitor Wallace Chan will be making his UK debut at London art fair. He will present Damask Silk Necklace, 2016 created for the Fair, made of 54 diamonds, 124 pink tourmalines, coloured diamonds, pink sapphires and white agate. British jeweler Hancocks will bring the world’s largest cushion cut diamond cross over ring made of two 20 carat diamonds.

Discoveries

Discovery is always an important feature of Masterpiece. Dickinson shows the monumental Madonna, Child and St John by Sir Anthony van Dyck c.1627 whose authorship is newly confirmed and which has not been seen in public since 1887.

Classical Art

The importance of Antiquities is emphasised with nine exhibitors, four of whom are new, presenting works spanning 3,000 years of ancient art history. Galerie Harmakhis shows an unusual bronze Egyptian statue Horus of Edfu Harpooning and Trampling Crocodiles from 664–525 B.C.
