As Frieze’s Director Victoria Siddall commented: ‘The quality and breadth of work in Frieze Masters keeps it fresh and exciting each year. I am looking forward to seeing even more antiquities dealers in the fair, as well as Indian art, alongside the best Old Masters and 20th-century work. Curators play an important role in this fair as well as in our contemporary fairs, and this year we welcome Tim Marlow (Director of Artistic Programmes, Royal Academy, London) who is co-curating Frieze Masters Talks, and Toby Kamps of the Menil Collection in Houston who is presenting his first edition of Spotlight.

 Once again we will see galleries from different fields collaborate on ground-breaking presentations, as the fair continues to offer new models for looking at and collecting art.’

What better way to mark the opening of their new gallery in a very impressive space created from a car park by Nick Gowing architects, just opposite the side entrance of Fortnum & Mason and the perfect place for exhibitions?

Robert Motherwell, born on 24th January 1915, was a major figure of the Abstract Expressionism Movement which emerged in New York in the 1940s. By the 1960s Motherwell was also working on other ideas – collages, series of paintings and printing prolifically.

 The show includes many notable works including Elegy to the Spanish Republic No. 130, which was part of a series he first started in 1947 and continued working on until his death in 1991.
