FRIEZE ART FAIR OPENING | WEDNESDAY 12TH OCTOBER 2011
Lady Eleanor Lindsay-Fynn left guests at the opening of The Frieze Art Fair’ in a state of shock when she had to be dragged out by security after a spontaneous piece of performance art called ‘Ignored and Rejected’. When asked about the piece Lady Eleanor said ‘This was in homage to a build up of tension that has happened over the last few years of working in the art world, and the Frieze preview was the ultimate moment to release it.’
Tom Lazemby a disturbed visitor said: ‘I wasn’t expecting to see that when I came to the Frieze Art Fair’ while artist Ben Young excitedly exclaimed: ‘F*cking priceless!! The best piece of art inthere by a mile!”
In collaboration with Ben Moore, film maker and founder of Art Below, ‘Ignored and Rejected’ will be screened for the first time at Top Floor, Hoxton Square on the evening of Tuesday 25th October at a VIP event.
Since the 3rd Octber Eleanor’s work ‘Yellow Faces’ has been on display across the whole length of Platform 1, at Regents Park tube station, aimed at the 100,000s of art lovers who pass through the tube on the way to Frieze.
