FOCUS, A PLATFORM FOR YOUNG GALLERIES

Frieze’s celebrated section for young galleries features eleven exhibitors each showing solo presentations by emerging or under-appreciated artists. Overseen for the first-time by Lumi Tan (Curator, Writer and Curatorial Director, Luna Luna), the section features four new participants – Central Galeria, Kapp Kapp, Madragoa and Patron – showing alongside Matthew Brown, Capsule Shanghai, Company Gallery, Cooper Cole, Gordon Robichaux, Mitre Galeria and Tif Sigfrids. Focus is sponsored by Stone Island. The brand’s subsidy of the section, in addition to Frieze’s existing support, enables galleries to participate in the fair and ensures that Focus remains a place to discover new talent.

Lumi Tan, (Curator, Writer and Curatorial Director, Luna Luna) said: ‘This year’s Focus section promotes an expanded definition of discovery that extends beyond age or exposure. In this truly intergenerational group of artists, audiences will recognize innovators who have long represented stories and perspectives overlooked by dominant culture. It’s a thrilling opportunity to bring those who have been steadfast in their position for decades together with younger artists who share throughlines in their artistic and societal concerns.’
