Frieze is an exceptional celebration of art that provides an opportunity to encounter some of the most significant artists in the world. Taking place between 5-8 October the fair comprises of Frieze London, Frieze Masters, Frieze Sculpture, Frieze Projects and Talks programmes. Art events and exhibitions are concentrated in Regent’s Park, but countless art exhibitions, events and alternative fairs pop up all over the city. We recommend what to see and where to find Polish artists.

Reading Room / Magazine Kiosk
New issue of Contemporary Lynx Magazine 2 (8) 2017 will have its premier in the Reading Room / Magazine Kiosk at Frieze London.
The main topic of this issue is Nomadism and Migrations: Nomadism for us is an inherent part of the creative process and an inevitable element of making a magazine on art happening on a local and global scale. With that in mind, the main topic of this issue — nomadism and migrations — came about quite naturally – say editors-in-chief – Sylwia Krasoń and Dobromiła Błaszczyk.
new issue contemporary lynx magazine 2(8)2017
