Frieze 91 Membership: A Cultural Passport to the New Avant-Garde

In an era where exclusivity often trumps experience, the art world has been ripe for a shift. The maze of contemporary art—often intimidating, always fascinating—is being redefined. Enter Frieze 91, an initiative that’s far more than your grandmother’s museum membership card. It’s an all-access pass and submersion into the beating heart of global culture, and it’s here to recalibrate how we engage with art.

Frieze recently announced a multi-year partnership with Stone Island, who will become the official partner of Frieze 91, in addition to the Focus section at their global fairs. The partnership will begin with Frieze London 2023, taking place Oct. 11-15 in The Regent’s Park.

The Membership that Breaks the Mold

Let’s get one thing clear: Frieze 91 isn’t merely a ticket to the VIP lounge. It’s a thoughtfully curated experience that nudges the boundaries between the commercial gallery spaces and the pulsating hum of organic artistic communities. The program is a dynamic ecosystem rather than a static offering—a multicultural, multidimensional blend of London’s edgy charm, New York’s relentless pace, Los Angeles’ innovative spirit, and Seoul’s rising influence on the global art stage.

The Committee as a Cultural Mosaic

The faces behind Frieze 91 read like a Who’s Who of today’s most influential tastemakers. Whether it’s filmmaker Campbell Addy’s lens, architect Andre Herrero’s futuristic designs, or fashion designer Edeline Lee’s avant-garde aesthetic, each committee member adds a different hue to this rich tapestry. The roster is a dynamic feast for the senses that promises an ongoing dialogue between tradition and innovation.

Frieze 91: An Unmatched Repertoire of Experiences

Celebrating Frieze London’s monumental 20th anniversary, the membership opens doors to some of the art world’s most tantalizing spaces. Fancy a studio chat with Adam Farah in London or an exhibition walk-through with Helina Metaferia in the Big Apple? It’s all part of the package. Throw in film screenings with Salvador Dalí’s protégé Steven Arnold, intimate talks focusing on female talent by Edeline Lee, and an invitation to the exclusive ICA Holiday Party, and you have yourself a cornucopia of cultural offerings.

Riding the Wave of the Membership Economy

Frieze 91 is not alone in its ambitions. It joins a growing list of elite arts memberships, like The Cultivist, that are reframing our relationship with art. But what sets Frieze 91 apart is its unequivocal commitment to inclusivity—making it not just a trend but perhaps the embodiment of the future of art engagement.

Frieze 91 is a welcoming embrace for those seeking to indulge in the richness of global art. It reimagines what a membership can be, moving from a transactional relationship to one that is transformative.  With the annual membership fee ranging from £990 to £1430 it’s also accessible.
