The 23rd edition of Frieze London opens next Wednesday with its VIP preview in Regent's Park, featuring 168 galleries from 43 countries.

Notable presentations include Modern Art showing Sanya Kantarovsky's stoneware sculptures, Lehmann Maupin presenting Do Ho Suh's translucent installations, and Gagosian featuring Lauren Halsey's sculptural tribute to South Central Los Angeles. Hauser & Wirth highlights rising star George Rouy alongside other artists, while White Cube focuses on the natural world with works by Marguerite Humeau, Howardena Pindell, and Sara Flores.

At Frieze London, a new section explores the flow of cultural influence between Africa and Brazil

Frieze London 2025 introduces a new curated section titled "Echoes in the Present," organized by Nigerian art historian Jareh Das. The section features eight galleries and ten artists, exploring the bidirectional cultural influences between Africa and Brazil, rooted in the history of the transatlantic slave trade. Artists such as Bunmi Agusto present works that delve into personal and collective histories, including Agusto's paintings about her great-great-grandfather, a Nigerian man sold into slavery who later returned home.

Frieze London and Frieze Masters have announced their 2025 exhibitor lists, with nearly 290 galleries set to participate in Regent's Park from October 15 to 19.

Putting young galleries at the front: Frieze London’s bold strategy holds

Frieze London's 22nd edition in October 2025 will retain a bold floor plan debuted in 2024 that places emerging galleries near the main entrance, pushing blue-chip heavyweights like Gagosian and David Zwirner further inside. Fair director Eva Langret confirms the layout is permanent, citing overwhelmingly positive feedback and renewed energy. The Focus section for galleries under 12 years old gets a boost, with a rotating system ensuring fresh stands near the entrance each year. A new curated section, Echoes in the Present, explores artistic links between West Africa, Brazil, and their diasporas. Meanwhile, Frieze Masters, dedicated to pre-20th-century art, will be run by new director Emanuela Tarizzo.
