Frieze London 13th edition
Oct 16, 2015
Breaking News
It is the largest and most spectacular art fair in Britain and this year offers real bargains, works by emerging artists from 1,000 pounds, a novelty at the fair which usual prices are not less than 20,000 pounds.
"Unrivaled in quality, variety and depth," as they say in their press presentation, Frieze shows its strength and expertise in contemporary art with the work of a team led by some of the most important curators on the international scene: Nicola Lees (Commissioner of the 31th Biennial of Graphic Arts, Ljubljana), Clare Lilley (Director of the Yorkshire Sculpture Park Programme) and Gregor Muir (Executive Director of ICA, London) who run the various programs and sections of the fair.
In this thirteenth edition FRIEZE it has 164 galleries from 27 countries that present the work of some of the most important contemporary artists of today. The mythical giant tent in Regent's Park hopes to give art and emotions to 60,000 visitors, collectors, critics, curators and art lovers that usually comes to this event. The pressure for curators and galleries is great, to stand out in Frieze is an arduous task.
Therefore there are bright proposals as the booth that reproduces the environment of a psychiatric hospital inspired in Jean Dubuffet ... or definitive sculptures as Ai Weiwei's "Iron Root" of the Lisson Gallery with secret price.
"There is much noise around Frieze so the curators try to do something that excites us and excites the artist hoping that it can attract to the audience," says the head of the gallery Hauser & Wirth. "It's not only to bring works or to work with a young fashion artist. You have to be smart and do a good job on your booth, knowing you have little ability to attract attention for the amount on offer there. We try to make a difference, raise the bar a little, "he adds.
