In this week’s podcast, special guest Touria El-Glaoui, Founding Director of 1-54 Contemporary African Art Fair, joins us to discuss the event’s expansion, her long-term fascination with the continent and how her father’s career as an artist impacted her own fascination with the sector.
Learn more about the resilience and ambition required to develop a fair which now holds a prominent position in the market’s calendar, and the importance of recognising skills which transfer across sectors.
