Frieze London was founded in 2003 by Amanda Sharp and Matthew Slotover. Eva Langret is Frieze London's Artistic Director. The fair is one of the world’s most influential contemporary art fairs, focusing only on contemporary art and living artists, and takes place each October in The Regent’s Park, in the heart of London. The fair’s exhibiting galleries represent some of the most exciting artists working today, from the emerging to the iconic; and a team of world-leading independent curators advise on feature sections, making possible performance-based work and ambitious presentations by emerging galleries. The fair’s focus on living artists and innovative practice is also evident in the critically acclaimed Frieze Talks programme.
