The
Art Car Boot Fair was an idea that grew out of a desire to pick
up where Joshua Compston’s ‘Fete Worse than Death’
and Gavin Turk’s ‘Livestock Market’ and Articultural
Shows’ blazed a trail in the 90’s and to re-introduce
some summer fun and frivolity into a thriving but increasingly
commercial London art scene. We aim for the Art Car Boot Fair
to be a day when the artists let their hair down and for all-comers
to engage with art in a totally informal way, and to pick up some
real art bargains to boot! Participation in the Art Car Boot Fair is by invitation and referral by original ‘booters’ only. The Art Car Boot Fair is an original event concept devised by Karen Ashton and developed since its inception in London in 2004 through invaluable collaborations with Helen Hayward, Vanessa Fristedt and, since 2008, Debbie Malynn. Ashton Hayward produces energised art related events that encourage direct interface between artists and their audiences in a playful and amusing fashion. |
