Mike Bouchet

For Sell and Destroy: Redrawing the Bottom Line, California-born and Frankfurt-based artist Mike Bouchet will provide a motivational speaker for the populace of Frieze Art Fair. Bouchet’s speaker, like those found in the programmes of business conventions, will tailor their positive reinforcement skills to make presentations on topics important to the art business.
Kim Coleman & Jenny Hogarth

UK-based collaborators Kim Coleman and Jenny Hogarth will present Players, a seamless projection of stage-managed and live events filmed at the fair, transforming the exposition into a mise-en-scene featuring unwitting visitors, gallerists and art fair workers.
Ruth Ewan

Working alongside Resonance104.4fm radio the entire contents of A Jukebox of People Trying to Change the World will be broadcast in its entirety on its own frequency. Started in 2003, the artist’s collection of around 1,500 politically motivated or idealistic songs now lasts for the exact duration of the Fair. The songs will be broadcast live, day and night, from a booth inside Frieze Art Fair. The project will be titled These Airwaves Neutralise the Tools of Oppression; A Radio Station of People Trying to Change the World.
Ryan Gander

Ryan Gander will set up an (almost) instant photo studio to make portraits of visitors to the fair looking at an artwork of their choice. The portrait will be printed immediately, given to the subjects and a copy will be hung in an installation along the entrance corridor to the fair.
Per-Oskar Leu

Per-Oskar Leu will arrange an impossible event at the fair – a book signing by Franz Kafka, 85 years after his death. Since none of Kafka’s novels were published during his lifetime, this book signing will be his first.
Monika Sosnowska

Monika Sosnowska will present a major structural intervention in which a large, heavy object crashes into the roof of the fair. Taking the form of a scale model of the infamous Palace of Culture in Warsaw – a ‘gift’ to the Polish people from the USSR – Sosnowska’s untitled project is a kind of cultural meteorite, the imposition of one cultural edifice onto another.
Stephanie Syjuco

During Frieze Art Fair, Stephanie Syjuco will set up a parasitic workshop in which a small group of artists will make bootleg copies of other works exhibited in the fair. The artists will use basic and inexpensive materials and will work in a gallery stand at the fair in full view of visitors. The copies will be displayed in an adjacent gallery stand.
Arte Contempo, Lisbon
Curators Filipa Oliveira and Miguel Amado will present a group of artists’ commissions that play on the transactional nature of the art fair. From their stand, visitors will be invited to engage in a number of activities that reverse or subvert the usual exchange of money for goods or services.
Contemporary Art Centre, Vilnius
Curators Kestutis Kuizinas and Simon Rees have commissioned artist Mindaugas Navakas to create Smash the Windows, Snatch the Crystals, made from window frames and panes recently removed from the CAC. The marriage of a monumental sculpture and material from a famous example of soviet modernist architecture is playful reflection on ways that art forms, and memories, associated with history can be productively remade.
Resonance 104.4fm
London’s art radio station will again be broadcasting live from the fair. The Frieze Talks programme will be broadcast alongside specially commissioned radio art projects and interviews with artists and art professionals around the fair. Fair visitors will be able to watch the resonance team at work and contribute to the debate. Listeners in the London area can tune in on 104.4FM or online.
