On the occasion of the 2025 edition, curators Hallie Ayres, Lukas Brasiskis and Anton Vidokle discuss technologies of the spirit and holes in the canon
Organised by Pablo José Ramírez (Curator, Hammer Museum, Los Angeles), a new themed section at Frieze London 2024 will present ceramic works that explore diasporic and indigenous histories.
Smoke will bring together international artists at the forefront of the medium today – whose practices mine pre-colonial traditions to use clay in expanded forms – presenting ceramics as one of the most impactful aesthetic forms in contemporary art.
This year, after debuting to widespread praise in 2023, the curated section ‘Artist-to-Artist’ returns to Frieze London as a highlight of the fair’s artist-driven programme.
The section features 34 solo and dual presentations from artists and galleries spanning five continents, including new spaces defining London’s cultural scene
