Last night in London, Whitewaller held an event at Blakes Below at Blakes Hotel to mark the launch of the Whitewaller London&Paris issue, out this week for the Frieze art fair.
The evening also celebrated the debut of Simon de Pury‘s new book in London, The Auctioneer, published by St. Martin’s Press. The night began with a conversation between de Pury and Kenny Schachter, moderated by art collector and Whitewaller London’s Guest Editor, Lauren Prakke.

The talk was followed by an afterparty at the same location, complete with cocktails, champagne, art, and music. Blakes Below is the spot to be this week in London, and it shouldn’t go unnoticed that many of Whitewaller‘s insiders recommended as their favorite London site to sip and have fun. Guests in attendance Monday night included Whitewall‘s own Michael Klug and Laurent Moisi, Jonathan Yeo, Fru and Soren Tholstrup, Poju and Anita Zabludowicz, Nick Rhodes, Jean Pigozzi, Nellee Hooper, Caroline Fleming, Arnaud Massenet, Amanda Caroline Cronin, Lady Victoria Hervey, Tia Graham, Goga Ashkenazi, and Lindsey Love.
