Frieze Projects is the critically acclaimed curatorial programme presented annually at Frieze Art Fair. Frieze Projects consists of site specific interventions and installations, performance, debate and conversation through Frieze Commissions, Frieze Talks and The Cartier Award.
Held in October, Frieze Projects is curated by Neville Wakefield and presented in association with Cartier. Tickets for the 2007 fair are now on sale. Frieze Art Fair provides a unique environment for a new series of Frieze Commissions. In 2007 Frieze Projects artists include Chris Evans, Lara Favaretto, Elin Hansdóttir, Janice Kerbel, Renata Lucas, Kris Martin, Gianni Motti and Richard Prince. The collaborating partner organisation this year is Frankfurter Kunstverein.
Frieze Talks complement the commissions programme, and feature leading figures from the art world, critical theorists and philosophers delivering keynote lectures and debating prevailing issues such as Collecting & Institutions, Authorship & Ownership, Boundaries & Nationalities and Education & The Market. Speakers at Frieze Talks 2007 include cultural theorist and McCarthy Genius Award recipient, Dave Hickey, Senior Curator of the Walker Art Centre, Philippe Vergne and art critic Alice Rawsthorn. Frieze Talks take place daily at the on site auditorium.
The 2007 recipient of The Cartier Award, Mario Garcia Torres, will present a new commission at the fair, following a three month residency at Gasworks, London's distinguished studio complex. The Cartier Award is a major international award, open to non-UK based artists within five years of graduating from a graduate or undergraduate degree.
