Photo London celebrated its 9th edition this year, and its 2nd under the leadership of Kamiar Maleki, the former director of VOLTA. The fair couldn’t have found a better leader to elevate its standards, which had been lacking in quality and attendance in recent years. With great excitement, I stepped through the doors of the Somerset House, right in the heart of London.

Kamiar Maleki’s leadership has been the best thing to happen to Photo London in years. After a period of searching for its identity, the fair has truly found its footing under his guidance. This 9th edition not only showcased a stunning array of contemporary art but also revitalized the event, bringing a new level of quality and excitement that promises a bright future for Photo London.
