Marinella SENATORE’s presentation for Frieze London is full of the same energy and dynamism that fuels her work. Presented simultaneously on our website and Frieze Viewing Room (from 9–16 October), the online display embodies the Italian artist’s radical disciplinary practice and street activism through a selection of works intended to emulate the spirit of festivals and intensity of public gatherings. 

Senatore's presentation for Frieze features new light pieces inspired by the traditional use of light structures in Italian religious festivals. A similar installation set the stage for Dior’s Cruise 2021 Collection, live streamed in Lecce, Italy in July 2020, evoking a religious festival with bright lights and framed by provocative feminist phrases. Senatore has regularly incorporated such structures into her work, including one under the High Line in New York, as a non-patriarchal space for people to enter and engage.
