The only free, unticketed strand of Frieze week, Frieze Sculpture spreads eleven international artists across The Regent's Park this autumn.
Eleven international artists show work among the plane trees of The Regent’s Park from Wednesday 16 September to Sunday 1 November 2026. Frieze Sculpture is the free outdoor strand of Frieze week.
Frieze began in 1991 as a magazine about contemporary art. Its founders built the fair in the park in 2003, and it has put a temporary art city there every October since.
Frieze Sculpture stands in the English Gardens for six weeks rather than five days. The work is seen at a distance and from behind, in weather and changing light, by everyone crossing the park rather than everyone holding a ticket. Galleries bring pieces at a scale no stand could take, judged against trees and sky instead of a white wall.
This year’s artists include Angel Otero, Conrad Shawcross, Tarini Sethi and Ivana Bašić.
The exhibition is up a month before the fair’s tents arrive and a fortnight after they are struck. It opens from 07:00 each morning, while the rest of the week’s trade charges for a preview.
