Frieze Education 2009

This year Frieze Education has been working with four London schools: Highbury Grove, Pimlico, The Grey Coat Hospital and Haverstock.

Artists Nicolas Deshayes and Melissa Jordan have worked with the students creating sculptures which they will be exhibiting in the Deutsche Bank Education Space at the fair on Thursday 15th and Friday 16th of October.

The private view on each day is 3pm-4pm and all visitors to the fair are welcome to come and join us. We will be updating the blog as the fair progresses.




Students from Highbury Grove work with the idea of the Readymade.

Frieze Young Critics







Year 12 students from Acland Burghley and St Marylebone met with critic D. Strauss to discover what it is like to be an art critic, recording their ideas and responses on iPods. Acland Burghley students interviewed performance artist Mark McGowan about his controversial practice. St Marylebone students recorded a round table discussion about the fair and the work they had seen in Resonance FM's booth.
