Focus

Section Frieze’s renowned section for emerging galleries presents 11 exhibitors at Frieze New York 2024, each showcasing solo presentations by emerging or under-recognized artists. Overseen for the first time by Lumi Tan, the section includes four new participants this year: Central Galeria, Kapp Kapp, Madragoa, and Patron. They join Matthew Brown, Capsule Shanghai, Company Gallery, Cooper Cole, Mitre Galeria, Gordon Robichaux, and Tif Sigfrids.

It’s an exciting opportunity to unite seasoned artists with younger talents who share common artistic and societal concerns.”
