Explore the Focus section at Frieze London 2016

A wave of new-generation London galleries join Focus for the first time this year, including Chewday’s with Gabriele Beveridge, Arcadia Missa (Jesse Darling, Dean Blunt and Hannah Quinlan & Rosie Hastings), Seventeen (Jon Rafman) and Southard Reid (Celia Hempton). Taiwan and Guatemala will be represented at Frieze London for the first time, with newcomers Chi-Wen Gallery bringing Yin-Ju Chen and Proyectos Ultravioleta presenting works by Elisabeth Wild and Vivian Suter.

The section will also build on strong representations from the emerging scenes in New York, Los Angeles, Paris, Beijing and Berlin, offering a platform for ambitious work by Liu Chuang (Magician Space, Beijing), Aaron Garber-Maikovska (High Art, Paris) and Liz Magic Laser (Various Small Fires (VSF), New York).
