La XXVIII edición de la feria de arte más importante del mundo, TEFAF Maastricht, se celebrará del 13 al 22 de marzo de 2015 con la presencia de 274 galerías de 22 de países. En esta ocasión se mostrará un recorrido por 7.000 años de historia a través de más de 30.000 obras de arte, desde el Antiguo Egipto al ‘street art’ de Banksy. La ciudad holandesa también se prepara para la feria con una programación cultural paralela.

It may be fair to say many of us today will take out our phones or simply log into our GPS units in our cars and allow a soothing, distant voice to guide us to our destination.

LET us hope St. James’s rare map and atlas expert Daniel Crouch, one of the leading dealers in his field, has a relaxing Christmas because next month he again embarks on what must be one of the most formidable fair schedules of any international dealer.

IN 2012, Amanda Sharp and Matthew Slotover, the founders of Frieze—the colourful, sometimes raucous art fair in Regent’s Park, London—launched a new, overlapping event nearby. Frieze Masters, they hoped, would demonstrate the ways in which old art influences what is being made now. In this context, “old”, like historic or traditional, is relative: 1999 is the fair’s cut-off point.

MID-October and the Frieze phenomenon is in full swing in London with press coverage blanketing not just the art columns but also the lifestyle, fashion and, of course, gossip sections.

Daniel Crouch Rare Books is the first books and maps dealer to take a stand at Frieze Masters.

There’s been a glut of map-related exhibitions in London recently, but this small free exhibition at the Oxo Tower makes a fine diversion. Tightly curated, it offers a sort of ‘greatest hits’ of London cartography, showcasing the chart-toppers from John Rocque and Harry Beck to Stephen Walter.

This September Daniel Crouch Rare Books presents a special pop-up exhibition of London maps at the Gallery@OXO on the South Bank as part of the city’s multi-event Totally Thames festival. The earliest work, the first printed map of London, dates to 1572, while the most re¬cent, a depiction of subterranean London, was created two years ago by Stephen Walter for the London Transport Museum in honor of the 150th anniversary of the London Underground. The assembled collection visually encapsu¬lates the history of the British capital.

Daniel had a chat with Jo Good and Simon Lederman about the Mapping London exhibition at gallery@oxo, as part of the Totally Thames festival.

One of the earliest maps of London is being put on show in the capital this week by a Jewish expert.

LONDON.- From the 4th – 14th September 2014 (preview 3rd September) the London-based dealer will host a pop-up selling exhibition at the Oxo Tower’s gallery@oxo, featuring some of the most important large-scale printed surveys of London ever produced – including ground-breaking maps of Georgian London, an exceptionally rare trade card map of Islington and a contemporary map of the bunkers and tunnels of subterranean London.

Part of the Totally Thames festival, Mapping London is an exhibition of maps of the capital, dating from 1572 to 2013. Curated by Daniel Crouch, a leading specialist map dealer, it runs from 4 to 14 September at the gallery at Oxo Tower Wharf.
