Much heralded by the press since its opening in 2012, this more general show is held concurrently with Frieze London, which focuses specifically on contemporary art and hosts 120 of the most prestigious galleries in the world. Tribal art will be represented at Frieze Masters by two outstanding dealers: Donald Ellis, whose expertise in American Indian art requires no further introduction, and Gallery Entwistle of London, which also has a presence in Paris and is a regular stop for collectors of African and Oceanic art who are looking for exceptional pieces of great formal quality and provenance. The twentieth-century art and design fair PAD London, will be held concurrently in Berkeley Square and will be an important venue for the presentation of non-European art, given that four dealers with specialties in the field will be showing there. Veteran participant Galerie Bernard Dulon will show mostly African art, with an emphasis on works from Cameroon and Gabon. African art will also be the focus of displays by Alain de Monbrison and Lucas Ratton, while Galerie Flak will present an exhibition titled Pure Forms, which transcends geographic borders by focusing on form and emotional content. This is the first PAD London event for Monbrison, Ratton, and Flak, and hopefully there will be many more in coming years. ABOVE: Mask, mblo. Baule, Côte d’Ivoire. C. 1900. Wood, metal, kaolin.
