Pad London Art And Design 2015

PAD London Art + Design 2015
PAD London Art + Design 2015

    Held annually in Berkeley Square, PAD London — the chic younger sibling of spring fair PAD Paris, founded by Patrick Perrin and Stéphane Custot in 1997 — celebrates discovery and connoisseurship across collecting categories.

    This year’s iteration, which runs from October 14 through 18, showcases an exciting mix of Art Deco furniture, Scandinavian modernism, postwar Italian art and tribal arts — in addition to contemporary furniture, lighting and ceramics. Visitors enjoy exemplary clean-lined pieces by such Scandinavian maestros as Axel Einar Hjorth, Finn Juhl and Poul Henningsen alongside boundary-pushing forms by contemporary creators like Paul Cocksedge, Charles Kalpakian, Florian Borkenhagen and Carol Egan.

    Galleries BSL (Paris), Friedman Benda (New York), Nilufar (Milan) and Ammann (Cologne) are just a handful of top-tier international 1stdibs exhibitors presenting their latest and greatest treasures. "We love participating in PAD London because it's a vibrant marketplace for contemporary art and design as well as antiques and jewelry," says Gabrielle Ammann. "The London crowd responds to its elegant and exuberant variety."

    Found under the fair's now-iconic black tent in the middle of Mayfair's leafy square are more than 60 dealers, a compelling mix thoughtfully curated by Perrin each year. Though he hails from the family behind Galerie Perrin, famed Parisian purveyors of fine 18th-century antiques, the fair's impresario acknowledges how appealing contemporary design and fine art are to today's top collectors and also that young, innovative dealers offering cutting-edge material bring an exciting energy when they've set up shop alongside veteran galleries and their blue-chip works. It's that sort of thinking that makes a visit to PAD London compulsory during this busy week when art and design connoisseurs descend on the city. If you can't attend the show in person, browse our editors' selection of pieces from 1stdibs galleries below.
