Commercial galleries are clustering around Cork Street and benefiting from the capital’s multiculturalism
As the Frieze fairs return to their hometown next week, the mood music around London’s creatives has turned upbeat. Despite a still depressed economic backdrop that has begun to impact sales of art around the world, the message from the city’s loyal commercial galleries is clear: it’s time to shake off the shackles of Brexit and the pandemic and back the capital in style.
Pilar Corrias has the young and in-demand LGBT+ artist Christina Quarles; Union Pacific offers the first UK show of the Swedish artist Niklas Asker; Tiwani opens with the British-Nigerian artist Joy Labinjo. Over the road, Stephen Friedman shows the more established British-Nigerian Yinka Shonibare, who has a coinciding show at Cristea Roberts gallery, work in Frieze Sculpture and is the chosen artist for this year’s Deutsche Bank lounges in the fairs.
