Summer is entering its last phase... But luckily we should have a beautiful Indian summer this year.
I'll be back in England soon and spending most of the season there. Between Bristol and London.
A few events on the way, firstly:
Frieze London
Regent’s Park
4–7 October 2018
Frieze has announced the participants for the 2018 editions of Frieze London and Frieze Masters, both of which run from October 5 to 7 in the English capital’s Regent Park. Some 160 galleries will bring their wares to the Frieze London fair, with some 130 more showing at Frieze Masters.
Frieze London 2018
Announcing New Curators and Innovative Programming
Press release
The 16th edition of Frieze London takes place from 5–7 October, with two Preview Days on Wednesday 3 October and Thursday 4 October
A new themed section, Social Work, will be selected by a panel of leading women art historians and critics
Frieze London 2018 will showcase the best of international contemporary art, with a discerning selection of around 160 galleries presenting their most forward-thinking artists and imaginative presentations. Opening for the rst time with a two-day Preview, Frieze London coincides with Frieze Sculpture and Frieze Masters in The Regent’s Park, together forming the most signi cant week in London’s cultural calendar. Global lead partner Deutsche Bank supports Frieze London for the 15th consecutive year, continuing a shared commitment to discovery and artistic excellence.
New collaborations with international curators, institutions and galleries will respond to contemporary issues – from the lack of visibility of women in the marketplace to hidden systems of communication and control – and create an exceptional environment for creativity and discovery.
New Themed Section
Following the success of Sex Work: Radical Art & Feminist Politics at Frieze London 2017, which focussed on artists from the 1960s and ‘70s, the fair this year will feature Social Work, celebrating artists who challenged the male-dominated art market of the 1980s. A panel of 11 women art historians and critics from UK institutions, including Iwona Blazwick, Katrina Brown, Louisa Buck, Amira Gad, Jennifer Higgie, Melanie Keen, Polly Staple, Sally Tallant, Fatos Üstek and Lydia Yee, will select a group of artists who challenged the status quo, embracing an activist approach in their art making and confronting social and cultural norms. The section will include both well-known and overlooked female artists, who address questions of identity, labour and visibility in their work. The participating artists and galleries will be announced in the coming months.
