Viewing Eye of the Collector

Where tradition meets innovation. Hurry over to Two Temple Place and immerse yourself in the curated art fair, the Eye of the Collector. Founded by Nazy Vassegh, the Eye of the Collector is an innovative art and design fair alternative set in the Neo-Gothic mansion of Two Temple Place. The fair unveils a tantalising assortment of 20th-century artworks, such as Bridget Riley, Andy Warhol, Frank Auerbach, Barbara Hepworth, and Lynn Chadwick, alongside contemporary and emerging artists and designers presented by the likes of Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery, Pi Artworks, Gillian Jason Gallery and Brooke Bennington.

This year the edition has a strong focus on modern and contemporary artists and designers and will include new commissions created especially for the fair. The May 2023 edition of the fair offers a unique environment to appreciate and acquire works by established and emerging artists and designers. Vassegh says, “This edition will very much continue our ethos of artistic discovery, shining a light on new and overlooked talent. We have a particularly strong focus on supporting international contemporary artists and designers, with 60 works being revealed at Eye of the Collector for the first time.” A must-see for all culturally curious art lovers!
