11.07.2011
This year saw the best of the best from around the world return to London for the second, annual Masterpiece art fair. Building on its success from last year, the show brought together 150 of the best known dealers in the art and antiques world for a five day event, presenting for sale a huge range of valuable and exquisite items.
The fair, which ended on 5th July, proved popular with professionals and the public alike as crowds flocked to the new setting in the grounds of the Royal Hospital Chelsea. RCL remote controlled spotlights were also popular and this year over 700 DR2s were used by 17 separate exhibitors - more than double the figure from 2010.
Lighting is critical when it comes to displaying art. The flexibility offered by RCL’s spotlights allows the user to position the beam exactly where they want it and dim it to the perfect intensity, ensuring the best possible lighting every time. And all this is done from floor level using a simple handheld remote control.
Exhibitors who used RCL spotlights this year included, Philip Mould, Daniel Katz, Carlton Hobbs, Kentshire Galleries and John Carlton Smith. In addition, Tomasso Brothers Fine Art returned to the show with over 80 RCL DR2s, having being introduced to them at the event last year and subsequently installing nearly a hundred in their new gallery at Dove walk, London.
RCL projectors are used by public galleries, museums and commercial dealers worldwide.
