Frieze London 2013: Program Announced

Frieze Projects, Emdash Award, Frieze Music and Frieze Film form the annual programme by Frieze Foundation at Frieze London, this year curated by Nicola Lees.

This year, Frieze Projects will be brought together in a single dedicated space within the fair designed by Andreas Angelidakis. Throughout the duration of the fair this ‘set’ will host projects by Gerry Bibby, Rivane Neuenschwander, Ken Okiishi, Lili Reynaud-Dewar and Josef Strau. The recipient of the 2013 Emdash Award is Pilvi Takala. Another integral component of Frieze Projects 2013 is a site-specific commission for the Family Space by Angelo Plessas. Frieze Projects is supported by the Emdash Foundation.

This year’s Frieze Music programme presents a performance by innovative composer, singer and performer Meredith Monk, co-commissioned by Frieze Foundation and Liverpool Biennial. Meredith Monk with Katie Geissinger in Concert will be Monk’s first London performance in nine years. Tickets to Frieze Music 2013 will be on sale 1 September at friezefoundation.org.
