It’s hard to miss Frieze London when it rolls into town every October. The main fair already features a sprawling public sculpture exhibition and two art-packed tents in Regent’s Park (including the more historically angled Frieze Masters). At the same time, London’s galleries host a mix of shows, from sure-fire favorites to spotlights on innovative emerging names. For 2025, numerous gallery exhibitions feature ambitious sculptural works. Some use unconventional found materials such as furniture and driftwood; others explore the transformative potential of metal.
Here, Artsy highlights 10 of the most compelling gallery exhibitions taking place during Frieze London 2025, featuring Goodman Gallery and October Gallery's joint exhibitions on El Anatsui. The significant of this follows the artist's 2023 Turbine Hall installation and his inclusion in the Tate's latest major show, Nigerian Modernism.
