The block of West 19th Street that is home to David Zwirner, Chambers Fine Art, Lombard-Freid, the Kitchen, and a slew of other galleries — in addition to dueling glassy structures by starchitects Frank Gehry and Jean Nouvel — is about to sprout another major luxury housing development.

Larry Gagosian’s power might be waning (maybe), but the mystery surrounding the infamously press-shy dealer is as appealing as ever — particularly as he fights numerous of legal battles and faces almost a full stable of defecting artists. Eric Konigsburg published a lengthy, in-depth look into the life and career of the art world’s most dominant dealer in New York Magazine this weekend, which will appear in the January 28 print issue.

Granted, London’s Frieze Week feels bigger every year. Exhibitions, talks, and performances are mushrooming in London’s every nook and cranny. But the 2012 edition is set to be a very special vintage. Not only is Frieze Art Fair (now known as Frieze London) celebrating its 10th edition, but it has begotten a sister fair, Frieze Masters, which will showcase “pre-21st century” art in a second big tent in Regent’s Park. Contemporary art is no longer Frieze Week’s only focus, and galleries and institutions of all stripes are going to extraordinary lengths to attract attention. To help you navigate the sea of art on offer, ARTINFO U.K. has compiled an ideal day-by-day itinerary. (more…)
