In this episode Miranda speaks with Gordon Cooke the founder of the London Original Print Fair which has been held every year at the Royal Academy of Arts since 1985… until this year. The wide spread lockdown due to COVID-19 forced Gordon and the team to improvise only six weeks before the opening. In his career Gordon has gone from selling prints through catalogs with only text descriptions to taking the fair online. In this episode we talk about the print market past and present, the changes made to the LOPF, and, of course, the love of collecting.
