Frieze Week London 2024
October 2024

As we welcome you to London this October, I am especially excited for everyone to discover a refreshed Frieze London. With a reimagined layout over a year in the making, it is a delight to see this new geography materialize and I can’t wait for you to explore it.

The inspiration for this bold design comes first and foremost from our exhibiting galleries, and our desire to provide an inspiring and memorable context for our visitors to experience the incredible art showcased by this global community. The new layout also truly takes advantage of the fair’s extraordinary, uniquely bucolic setting in The Regent’s Park.

Frieze Week in London is the result of an effort of the whole community, and I’m grateful to each one of you who contributes to this. 

I would like to thank all the fair’s partners, and especially Global Lead Partner Deutsche Bank, who are collaborating this year with Rene Matić. Matić became the youngest artist in the national collection when Tate acquired their work at Frieze London in 2021: a testimony to the special things that happen when we all come together in London.

- Eva Langret, Director, Frieze London
