The art world has descended on London this week for the return of Frieze London and Frieze Masters, collectively bringing together hundreds of international galleries and presenting thousands of artworks—and these two tentpole events present an incredible opportunity to check out the booths of some of Artnet Gallery Network’s members in real life. While the Artnet Gallery Network is a premier resource for easily exploring and discovering galleries from around the world all in one place, nothing quite beats seeing art IRL when the opportunity arises.
Below, we’ve gathered just a few of the network’s galleries that currently have presentations on view at Frieze.
A fair local, the Mayor Gallery is based in London and is staging a solo exhibition of work by Colombian artist Feliza Bursztyn (1933–1982). A contemporary of Gego and Mira Schendel, Brsztyn is best known for her kinetic sculptures and installations made from discarded metal, motors, and other industrial-related materials. Showcasing works dated from across the artist’s career, the Mayor Gallery’s booth is an invaluable opportunity to glimpse the scope of this influential Modern artist.
Participating in Frieze London, David Zwirner is featuring an international, cross-generational group show comprised of artists Francis Alÿs, Katherine Bernhardt, Marcel Dzama, Walter Price, Thomas Ruff, Steven Shearer, Wolfgang Tillmans, and Rose Wylie. From playful Pink Panther motifs by Bernhardt to contemplative photos of the cosmos by Ruff or fantastical vignettes by Dzama, David Zwirner’s booth celebrates each individual artist’s voice while simultaneously encouraging dialogue through their juxtaposition.
Bringing an extensive number of works to the limelight, Hauser and Wirth is participating in both Frieze London and Frieze Masters. At Frieze London, the gallery is presenting a solo booth of work by Charles Gaines, debuting the artist’s newest works from his seminal “Shadows” series, which was begin in 1978. At Frieze Masters, the gallery is showing a selection of 19th- and 20th-century works from gallery roster artists and more—with the crowning jewel of the presentation being Pelouse du champ de courses à Longchamp (1965) by Édouard Manet.
At Frieze London, another local gallery, Paragon, is showcasing the work of four contemporary artists: Gary Hume, Christopher Le Brun, Sarah Morris, and Grayson Perry. Each artist is recognized for their dynamic and singular use of color, from Morris’s geometric abstractions to Perry’s wild figurative vignettes. Together, the booth offers an exploration of how color and composition can inform one another.
Galerie Lelong and Co. will also be presenting a group presentation at Frieze London, with a thematic focus on portrayals of femininity. Featuring the work of artists Ana Mendieta, Yoko Ono, Martha Rosler, Pinaree Sanpitak, and Nancy Spero, each artist hails from a different nationality and generation, resulting in a wide-ranging exploration of the feminine from diverse perspectives.
