Frieze London
Frieze London takes place in Regent’s Park. Among the solo presentations announced, where a gallery gives its whole booth to one artist, two are the easiest way in: at Lisson, Brazilian painter Dalton Paula’s portraits of Black figures history left without a likeness; at Fort Gansevoort, Haitian artist Myrlande Constant’s Vodou banners sewn with beads and sequins. The same park holds Frieze Masters, spanning a thousand years of art, and a free outdoor sculpture show.
At Lisson’s solo booth, Dalton Paula paints Black figures from Brazilian history who left no likeness, in oil and gold leaf.
The official highlight shows Zacimba Gaba (2025). The sitter meets your eye; come closer and the gold catches the light, the colour of icons and nobility given to people history overlooked.
At Fort Gansevoort’s solo booth, Haitian artist Myrlande Constant turns Vodou banners into dense beadwork: dazzling from afar, stitch by stitch up close.
She brought beading techniques from a wedding-dress factory to scenes of figures, community and festivals. Shift your angle and the sequins flash with the light; lean in and you see every image sewn bead by bead.
All in Regent’s Park: Frieze London for new work galleries have brought this year, Frieze Masters for a thousand years of art, and a free sculpture show on the lawns and under the trees.
See brand-new contemporary work in the morning and centuries-old painting at Masters in the afternoon, with sculptures standing under the trees as you cross the park between them.

London and Masters are separate fairs: a general ticket covers one, so buy a combined ticket (GBP 92 full price at the weekend) for both; the sculpture park is free and is not a fair ticket.
14 October is for members only, 15 and 16 are pricier preview days, and the weekend of 17–18 is general admission.
General admission and First Access, for entry before 3pm, are sold separately and you enter in the slot on your ticket; for more time to look slowly, choose First Access.
Other galleries and works are not fully announced; the two here are from the official 2026 highlights. Online tickets carry a booking fee.
