Frieze London and Frieze Masters 2025 bring together over 280 galleries from 45 countries, spanning six millennia of art history alongside today’s most innovative practices. The fair offers a space for discovery that captures the pulse of the art world through both contemporary and historical works, featuring leading artists and an immersive architectural experience.

From 15–19 October 2025, London’s Regent’s Park will once again become the epicenter of global art. Founded in 2003 by Amanda Sharp and Matthew Slotover, Frieze London was envisioned as an international platform uniting artists, galleries, collectors, and critics. The brand, rooted in the legacy of Frieze magazine, has since remained synonymous with innovation, debate, and artistic discovery.

Frieze London serves not only as a showcase of the contemporary art scene but also as a barometer of current trends for collectors and curators. This year’s edition features over 160 galleries, including London’s leading institutions such as The Approach, Lisson Gallery, and Victoria Miro, as well as international giants like Gagosian, Pace, and David Zwirner. Beyond major presentations, the fair highlights emerging artists through curated sections such as Artist-to-Artist, Focus, and Echoes in the Present.

Frieze Masters, directed by Emanuela Tarizzo, presents a dialogue between ancient artifacts and modern icons, uniting 6,000 years of art history. Sections such as Studio and Spotlight juxtapose historical and contemporary practices, while Reflections brings together decorative arts, rare objects, and collections that bridge past and present. In parallel, Frieze Sculpture transforms Regent’s Park’s English Gardens into an open-air exhibition, underscoring art’s accessibility to the public.

Curated by Jareh Das, Echoes in the Present connects artists from Brazil and Africa with their diasporas, exploring memory, land, and materiality through works by Bunmi Agusto, Serigne Mbaye Camara, Aline Motta, and others. Meanwhile, the Focus section shines a light on emerging galleries such as Bombon, Gathering, and Kayokoyuki, emphasizing experimentation and risk-taking.

Frieze London and Frieze Masters are as much about space as they are about art. The design of Regent’s Park’s pavilions turns the fair into an architectural experience—each gallery curated to reflect its aesthetic vision. Under the curation of Fatoş Üstek, Frieze Sculpture integrates art with the park’s natural landscape, showcasing works that engage with the public realm.

In 2025, Frieze London continues to redefine what an art fair can be: not merely a marketplace, but a living laboratory of ideas where history and the present, artists and audiences, converge in dialogue.
