FRIEZE 2018

Posted on 2018-10-15

The 16th edition of Frieze London closed on Sunday 7 October, having brought together ambitious presentations by 160 international galleries in The Regent’s Park. A new two-day Preview as well as expanded VIP programming into the weekend, resulted in record attendance of top tier collectors from the United States to South America, Europe and Asia, and sales being made throughout the week.

Indicative of the fair’s convening power, Frieze London 2018 saw an increase in museum presence, including strong representation from international institutions. The inaugural Camden Arts Centre Emerging Artist Prize at Frieze was launched, alongside the return of two major acquisition funds with Tate and Contemporary Art Society, demonstrating Frieze’s long-standing collaboration with leading institutions. Also new for 2018, the Frieze Debate brought together a panel of global museum directors for a free live event and recorded broadcast, in collaboration with BBC Radio 3.
