Verbatim

 

Verbatim return to London Original Print Fair for the third time. This year we will again be showcasing new works by Maite Cascón, Jake Garfield, Ellie Hayward and Thomas Gosebruch. 
 
We will be displaying only new works, including the launch of a number of previously unseen editions and unique prints.
 
All four artists hold printmaking at the core of their practice and are fully hands on in the creation of the work. As a result the works on show have been created with a sensitivity to the nuances of the woodcut, etching and monotype processes.
 
As the only artist-led gallery at the fair, Verbatim provide the rare opportunity for visitors to discuss the work with the practitioners who have made them. Cascón, Garfield, Gosebruch and Hayward will be on hand to answer questions about their work, upcoming projects, numerous prizes received over the last year or the major collections holding their work (including British Museum, V&A, British Library, Royal Collection, Fitzwilliam Museum).
