15 Solo Shows at Frieze London and Frieze Masters

Frieze London and Frieze Masters will feature a wealth of solo presentations by contemporary talents and 20th-century icons. Here are just 15 artists not to miss across both fairs.

At Frieze London

At the entrance to Frieze London, visitors will be greeted by three immersive presentations: Modern Art's showing of fifteen new stoneware sculptures by Sanya Kantarovsky; Soft Opening's debut by London-based artist Ebun Sodipo, with works that draw on ancestral knowledge and visual archives to explore the Black transfeminine experience; and Portas Vilaseca's solo show by Guatemalan Maya-Tz’utujil artist Antonio Pichillá Quiacaín, bringing textile-based works, sculptures and video that challenge colonial narratives and affirm Indigenous cultural resilience.

Nearby, Cecilia Brunson Projects will present work by Indigenous artist Claudia Alarcón, who, alongside her individual practice, leads the Silät collective, an organisation of one hundred women weavers of different generations from the Alto la Sierra and La Puntana Wichí communities in Argentina.

Elsewhere at the fair, Pace Gallery will showcase works by William Monk, whose enigmatic paintings use rhythmic, divisional compositions to dissolve figuration into vibrant visual mantras, creating works that evoke a visceral connection between inner and outer experience.

Gagosian will present new works by Los Angeles native Lauren Halsey whose Afrofuturist and Funk-inspired installations and sculptures explore themes of community, identity, and civic engagement.

Lehmann Maupin will show works by internationally renowned artist Do Ho Suh, with selections from Specimens, ScaledBehaviour, and Spectators series, in addition to several thread drawings and a large-scale fabric installation – coinciding with the artist's major show at Tate Modern. 

Esther Schipper will present Sarah Buckner’s recent paintings, mostly female figures, drawing on mythical, literary, and personal references.

Stephen Friedman Gallery will present new works on paper and paintings by Sarah Ball that explore the psyche of her subjects through closely cropped, surreal compositions.

In addition to these presentations in the main galleries section at Frieze London, the fair's acclaimed curated sections will feature solos by emerging artists in Focus, artist from the West Africa, Brazil and their diasporas in Echoes in the Present; and from new voices nominated by major artists in Artist-to-Artist. 

At Frieze Masters

Over at Frieze Masters, Pace will devote its stand to Peter Hujar, highlighting the artist’s backstage portraits of performers in the theatres and nightclubs of 1970s and ’80s New York.

Schoelkopf Gallery will present an Andrew Wyeth solo show, 20 works in tempera, watercolour and drawing by the American realist master, including rarely seen works exploring the emotional resonance of landscape and portraiture.

Luxembourg + Co. will show the first retrospective outside the US of Light and Space-affiliated artist Joe Ray. His work merges abstraction with social realities shaped by race, politics and the cosmic imagination.

Salon 94 and Karma will offer a joint presentation of work by the senior Aboriginal artist Mirdidingkingathi Juwarnda Sally Gabori, whose paintings translate her ancestral country into bold abstractions.

  

Johyun Gallery will present an extensive overview of the artistic legacy of Park Seo-Bo, encompassing works from his early Primordialis series through to the Ecriture series of the 1990s.

Don't miss a wealth of solo presentations by radical artists of the 20th century in the Spotlight section, as well as major contemporary artists influenced by art history in Studio.
