As the art world descends on London for the 13th Frieze Art Fair, we take a snapshot of art fair activity happening across the capital this week.
The British Art Show happens every five years, bringing together a selection of work by UK-based artists who in the view of the exhibition’s curators have made a ‘significant contribution’ to the country’s art scene in that time.
