The Buy Art Fair has just announced its series of art talks for the event in October.
There are wide range of talks from well-known collectors, on art for the workplace, and learning about contemporary art. These are a great addition to the event, which is so accessible to everyone, whether you’re a complete art novice or a more experienced collector.
One famous collector, Robert Devereux, who has been collecting art for more than 40 years, will be sharing his experiences – and he certainly knows what he’s talking about!
Another talk discusses how it’s possible to buy and share art within a collective. Members of The Collective who have been doing this for some years now will discuss their experiences and answer questions.
Another interesting-sounding talk will be given by Sally Lai and Ying Kwok from Manchester’s Chinese Arts Centre, giving an introduction to collecting Chinese art.
On top of this, there will be guided talks around The Manchester Contemporary and a chance to meet and chat to the artists. This is a great way to understand the thinking behind the pieces and add to your knowledge of contemporary art.
The talks are sponsored by the Contemporary Art Society, Arts & Business and Corridor 8.
