According to The Guardian, Photo London is “the UK photography event of the year.” Back for its ninth edition, the 2024 event features 120 exhibitors at Somerset House, including Leila Heller Gallery from New York, Persons Projects from Berlin, and Rolf Art from Buenos Aires. The fair’s presenting partner, the hospitality and leisure company Belmond, is making a splash, too, showcasing work from its “Belmond Legends” series. They’ve invited world-renowned photographers—think François Halard, Rosie Marks, Letizia Le Fur, and more—to shoot some of the most incredible properties in their portfolio: among them, the Copacabana Palace in Rio and Mount Nelson in Cape Town. The results are often unexpected. Don’t miss the fair’s celebration of French photography, curated by the British dealer Robert Hershkowitz. —Elena Clavarino
