Danskernes Kunstfavorit Den 13 KUNST : FRIEZE, LONDON Af grevinde Cath Alexandrine Danneskiold-Samsøe Danskernes kunstfavorit Den 13. udgave af udstillingen Frieze London og Frieze Masters trak over fire dage i oktober over 100.000 kunstinteresserede gæster, der dedikerede deres fulde ’Magdalena’ af Marlene opmærksomhed til udstillinger fra 164 gallerier fra 27 lande. Dumas, præsenteret ved Hauser & Wirth/Moretti Fine Art. FRIEZE blev etableret i 2003 af Matthew Slotover og Amanda Sharp i London og er en af verdens vigtigste kunstbegivenheder inden for samtidskunst. Med sin høje kvalitet af kunstpræsenta- tioner og en ’overkommelig’ størrelse er Frieze relevant for både den trænede connaisseurs øje og for ’nybegyndere’ – dem, der endnu ikke har den store indsigt i den krævende kunstverden. Det er tydeligt, at der her ses flere skandinaviske gæster end ved eksempelvis Art Basel. Årets program bød på flere bogsigneringer, art-talks og film, og som noget helt nyt bød Frieze på ’galleries rehangs’, som gav gallerierne mulighed for at skifte udstillinger og på den måde tilbyde det kunstinteresserede publikum en ny oplevelse hver eneste dag. ’Asylum’ – ’The Collectors’ Tre hovedsektioner -standen var dedikeret til ’Frieze Sculpture Park’ åbnede med en udstilling, som i øvrigt Jean Dubuffet og præsenteret vises frem til den 17. januar 2016. Ud over Frieze Masters, som ved galleriet Helly Nahmad. var placeret 12 minutters gang væk, bestod Frieze London 2015 af tre hovedsektioner: ’the main section’, ’Focus’ og ’Live’. ’The main section’ præsenterede udstillinger i regi af kom- mercielle gallerier, både de veletablerede og helt nye, og bød på et varieret program af internationale kunstnere. ’Focus’ var dedikeret til unge gallerier og fremhævede kon- ceptuelle præsentationer af spirende talenter, enten i form af solo- eller gruppeudstillinger baseret på et udvalgt tema. ’Felix the Cat’, ballonskulptur af ’Live’ dannede rammen om ambitiøse artperformances og Mark Leckey, gav mulighed for de mere eksperimenterende projekter. ved Galerie Buchholz. Højdepunkter Traditionen tro blev Frieze Artist Award uddelt for at ære et spi- rende talent. I år blev Rachel Rose (født 1986 i New York) pris- modtageren for sin mini-Frieze-telt-installation. Blandt showstoppers var en stor installation af Tom Friedman ved Stephen Friedmans galleri og en kæmpe ballonskulptur af Mark Leckey, ’Felix the Cat’, ved Gallerie Buchholz. Man har også spekuleret på, om Damien Hirst har fået sit comeback eller ej … Hans værker var i hvert fald både synlige og hurtigt solgte ligesom Ai Weiweis, Anish Kapoors og Jean- Skulpturen Michel Basquiats, mens der ikke var værker af Jeff Koons udstil- ’Iron Root’ af Ai Weiwei, ved let i år. galleriet Lisson. 152 KUNST : FRIEZE, LONDON JAGT : ERIKSBERG Soloudstilling med værker af Michelangelo Pistoletto, præsenteret ved Galleria Continua. Camille Henrots værker, præsenteret ved Kamel Mennour. Et større udvalg af Michelangelo Pistolettos værker var smukt præsenteret af Galleria Continua ved Frieze Masters, og som en stor overraskelse var Pistoletto selv til stede for at signere sin bog for de få heldige. Det ubetingede højdepunkt hos Frieze Masters i år var ’The Collectors’-standen ved galleri Helly Nahmad med en udstilling dedikeret til Jean Dubuffet, ’Asylum’. Fortrolighed omkring salg Kunstmessens høje kvalitet afspejledes i udsolgte adgangsbillet- ter og i Friezes kommercielle succes. Omsætningen taler man kun om mellem linjerne, da Frieze ikke har offentliggjort salgs- resultaterne siden 2006. Selvom næsten alle gallerier ønsker fortrolighed omkring deres omsætning, så bekræfter smalltalk ’Crisis X’, 1982, af Jean-Michel Basquiat, på gangene, at der er tale om en millionomsætning i britiske Van de Weghe Fine Art. pund og US-dollars hos mange gallerier. Blandt årets mest markante salg var Marlene Dumas’ ’Magda- lena’ (3,5 mio. pund ved Hauser & Wirth/Moretti Fine Art), et værk af Günther Uecker, ’Weibe Spirale’ (2,27 mio. dollars ved Cardi). John Gunther Rare Books solgte ’Simon Bening’-bogen for 3,8 mio. euro, og galleri David Zwirner solgte Bridget Rileys værk ’Vapour 3’ for 1,4 mio. dollars. Damien Hirsts værk ’Holbein’ blev solgt af White Cube Gal- lery for knap 1,2 mio. dollars. Lisson Gallery solgte Ai Weiweis ’Iron Root’ for 500.000 euro, et værk af Gabriel Orozco solg- tes for 900.000 dollars, den britiske kunstner Chris Ofilis ma- leri ’Midnight Cocktail’ blev solgt for 750.000 dollars ved gal- leri David Zwirner, og Camille Henrots værker i priskategorien 46.000-230.000 dollars var alle solgt af Galerie Kamel Mennour allerede ved åbningen.

Also new for 2018, the Frieze Debate brought together a panel of global museum directors for a free live event and recorded broadcast, in collaboration with BBC Radio 3. Frieze London is supported by global lead partner Deutsche Bank for the 15th consecutive year. Victoria Siddall (Director, Frieze Fairs) said: ‘The atmosphere in London this week has been phenomenal and the city has been packed with people from all over the world, drawn here by the fantastic exhibitions in museums and galleries as well as by the fairs themselves. This translated into substantial sales across all sections of Frieze London and Frieze Masters and throughout the entire week.

  • Chisenhale Gallery Believes in Artists
    chisenhale.org.uk Chisenhale Gallery was founded by artists. The same Chisenhale gallery experimental vision and spirit of possibility that changed an empty veneer factory and brewery warehouse into an art believes in artists gallery guides our work today. We commission and produce contemporary art, supporting international and UK-based artists to make their most ambitious work to date by pursuing new directions in their practices. We are committed to our audiences having access to the energy and ideas of an ever- expanding artist community. Chisenhale Gallery has an award-winning, 38-year history as one of London’s most innovative forums for art production and presentation. With a reputation for identifying new artistic talent, we believe in making cultural impact through working with artists. We develop ideas with artists over a one-to-two year incubation period, from concept to completion. Located in a dynamic and creative residential neighbourhood in the heart of London’s East End, where many cultures converge, Chisenhale Gallery is an evolving space for experimentation, transformed by each artist’s commission. Chisenhale Gallery is a registered charity, part of Arts Council England’s National Portfolio. The gallery fundraises for the programme in its entirety, as well as for more than half of all core costs, through trusts, foundations and individual donations. All of our exhibitions are free.
