\n\tOn Wednesday, at Frieze<\/a> London VIP day, Tate<\/a> kept busy, acquiring three new works by female artists for its collection.<\/p>\n

They are Tanzanian, London-based artist Lubna Chowdhary\u2019s ceramic and wooden sculpture titled Assembly\u00a0(2025), bought from Jhaveri Contemporary gallery; a cont\u00e9, charcoal, and pastel on paper titled End of Affair II (2025) by British artist Barabra Walker from Victoria Miro<\/a>; and Untitled (Venus Mid Heaven), 1920-30, ink on calco, by the late British artist Madge Gill, which was sold by the Gallery of Everything at Frieze Masters.<\/p>\n

The works were acquired through the Frieze Tate Fund, which offers \u00a3150,000 in philanthropic support. The cash was previously provided by Endeavor, the fair\u2019s former owner. (Ariel Emanuel, via his newly formed company now called Mari, finalized the acquisition of Frieze, the company that includes its namesake publication, seven art fairs around the world, and two exhibition spaces, earlier this month.) <\/p>\n

Since Frieze London first launched in 2003, Tate has acquired more than 170 works by over 100 artists at the fair. \u201cThese works have since been seen by millions of visitors in Tate\u2019s four galleries and have been shared with museums and galleries across the UK and beyond,\u201d the museum said in a statement.<\/p>\n
