"Beyond Frieze, of course, is a vast parallel art world, with thousands of unrepresented artists and curators keen to realise their big ideas. Hypha Studios has for some years been finding vacant property in cities around the UK to provide free exhibition and studio space to artists, curators and other creatives. This week it launched Hypha Curates, an online sales platform. Ben talks to the non-executive director of Hypha Studios, Will Jennings."
"And this episode's Work of the Week is a drawing by Pierre-Auguste Renoir. A study in red and white chalk for one of his greatest works, the painting known as The Great Bathers in the Philadelphia Museum of Art, it's a key piece in a new exhibition at the Morgan Library & Museum in New York, called Renoir Drawings. We speak to the exhibition's curator, the director of the Morgan Library and Museum, Colin B. Bailey."
Frieze returns to London with two fairs, Frieze London and Frieze Masters, running in Regent's Park until 19 October amid debate over the art market's health. Market commentary focuses on the mood inside the large fair tents and wider indicators of collector activity. Hypha Studios locates vacant properties across UK cities to provide free exhibition and studio space to artists, curators and other creatives and has launched Hypha Curates, an online sales platform, with Will Jennings as non-executive director. A red-and-white chalk study by Pierre-Auguste Renoir for The Great Bathers appears in Renoir Drawings at the Morgan Library & Museum (17 October–8 February 2026), then at the Musée d'Orsay (17 March–5 July 2026).
