ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Thank you to our sponsors, partners, exhibitors & visitors
London’s Berkeley Square. Within this marquee you will find 108 specialist dealers and galleries, an Alad- din’s Cave of art, furniture, jewellery, textiles, antiq- uities, ceramics, sculpture, clocks and silver. There is an atmosphere of discovery and, whether you’re a first time buyer or a seasoned visitor, we hope you will be inspired by what you find around the stands. As an association fair, there is a friendly, collegiate feel and the Fair is our opportunity to offer LAPADA’s members a platform upon which to display their carefully sourced wares in the heart of Mayfair. It is they, the exhibitors, who

make the Fair what it is and at LAPADA we watch throughout the year as they tirelessly search for and painstakingly research the items you now see on show, and for this we thank them. We are lucky to be able to showcase their eclectic tastes and breadth of knowledge in Berkeley Square in the heart of London, a city that is both rich in artistic heritage and a vibrant hub of contemporary art practice and innovative design.
Of course, the art and antiques trade cannot be seen in isolation from our institutional cousins, and an excit- ing development for the fair this year is our first cultural partnership with the University of Oxford’s Ashmolean Museum. The world’s first purpose built museum, in the words of Director Dr. Alexander Sturgis its collections span millennia “from the crude tools of our earliest an- cestors to the present day”. Such breadth is in keeping with the diversity of objects and works of art you will find presented by the LAPADA members at the Fair, whose belief in cherishing and preserving the art and objects of the past chimes with the Ashmolean’s own ethos. We hope you may also be inspired to make the short
trip to Oxford to visit the museum itself, perhaps to see its major autumn exhibition, Drawing in Venice: Titian to

e are delighted to welcome you to the LAPADA Art & Antiques Fair 2015, our sev- enth year in the glorious surroundings of
Canaletto (October 22-27), the focus of our keynote lec- ture on Friday September 25. This preview of the exhibi- tion, presented by the Ashmolean’s Dr. Catherine Whis- tler, leads the Fair’s expanded programme of informative lectures, talks and tours which proved so popular in 2014. None of this would be possible without the generosity of our sponsors and partners and LAPADA is immensely grateful for the continued support of Principal Sponsor Delancey, the real estate and investment advisory company. This year we are delighted to announce Maggie’s as our charity partner. Maggie’s works to support those with cancer in London and is the beneficiary of the 2015 LAPADA Charity Party on Thursday Septem- ber 24, kindly sponsored by Delanc- ey, Hyperion Insurance and Aviva. We are pleased to continue our me- dia partnerships with Apollo, Harp- er’s Bazaar and French Radio Lon- don, and this year sees new alliances with House & Garden and The Week.
For the second year, Micha Weidmann Studio is to thank for the fair’s stylish environs, within which you will again find Mr Fogg’s bar and perhaps enjoy a tipple from one of our drinks partners, Champagne Lanson and Berkeley Square Gin. Temperley London, fashion partner for the third year, finishes the list on a chic note. As Fair Director, I am delighted that you have chosen to come to the LAPADA Art & Antiques Fair 2015. The fact that visitor numbers have increased year on year is testament to the enormous efforts made by our knowl- edgeable exhibitors, who work tirelessly year round to present the best of their stock every September. As you tour their stands, I hope you find things to surprise, de- light and, perhaps, take home. Enjoy!
