Membership programme to coincide with 30th anniversary celebrations
In 2021 Frieze turns 30. To mark the occasion, Frieze will celebrate with Anniversary Sessions, a three-day digital festival that will take place February 17-19. The anniversary celebrations will also see the launch of Frieze’s new membership programme, which gives members access to a community that champions art and the debates that drive cultural conversation.
Anniversary Sessions
The three-day online festival will see a series of intimate but wide-ranging talks between some of the major writers and artists who have shaped the artistic landscape over the past three decades and touch upon some of the most important topics in art today. Participants in a series of online conversations between artists will include: Matthew Barney, Jeremy Deller, Lubaina Himid, Philippe Parreno, Rirkrit Tiravanija, Kara Walker and Anicka Yi.
A festival atmosphere will be conjured by award-winning chefs and bar managers from some of Frieze’s favourite restaurants, including Dante NYC, Frankies 457 Spuntino, Locanda Locatelli, Rita’s and Roberta’s, showing us how to mix their favourite cocktails in a series of specially commissioned videos.
Closing out the programme, an acoustic set by Arlo Parks will take place on Friday evening.
Anniversary Sessions are exclusive to members only.
Frieze Membership
A new way to enjoy frieze and receive specialised membership perks.
With the new membership programme you can now enjoy unlimited access to frieze.com—a destination for cultural criticism, profiles and interviews with leading and emerging artists from around the world. In addition to digital access to frieze, members can enjoy priority access to Frieze fairs and early access to Frieze Viewing Rooms, with other benefits along the way.
Frieze will also launch a third tier of membership, Frieze 91, in the coming months once in-person and live events return. Designed for new collectors, Frieze 91 will give patrons early entry to all Frieze events, private access to participating galleries, tours of artist studios and museums, as well as exclusive events across the globe.
