1-54 is the first and only international art fair dedicated to contemporary art from Africa and its diaspora.
With three editions per year—in London, New York and Marrakech—as well as an annual pop-up fair in Paris, 1-54 draws reference to the fifty-four countries that constitute the African continent
Returning to the iconic, neoclassical building of Somerset House, located in the very heart of the city and overlooking the River Thames, the fair will be held in the West, East, South and Embankment galleries. Once again, this twelfth edition of 1-54 London will coincide with Frieze London.
This year, more than 60 galleries have been carefully selected, showcasing the varied mediums and work of over 160 established and emerging artists hailing from the continent and global diasporas. The fair will be accompanied by special curated events, as well as a rich VIP and Public programme
