Curated in 2007 by Neville Wakefield, Frieze Projects will feature site-specific commissions by artists Lara Favaretto, Elìn Hansdòttir, Janice Kerbel, Kris Martin, Gianni Motti and Richard Prince, all of which respond to the social and economic dynamics of the fair and explore ideas of presentation and engagement within this unique setting. Frieze Commissions includes a project with this year's collaborating institution Frankfurter Kunstverein.

The 2007 Cartier Award recipient Mario Garcia Torres will reframe the body of work of film auteur Allen Smithee in a keynote lecture presented as part of Frieze Talks. Frieze Talks features leading art world figures delivering keynote lectures and panel debates on the prevailing issues in aesthetics, ethics, art production and the wider cultural sphere. Panel discussions start at 12pm daily followed by keynote lectures at 4pm.

The Expanded Gallery (Thursday 11 October) Mass Forms for Private Consumption, chaired by Alice Rawsthorn will examine how bespoke forms of industrial design, graphics and film have recently moved into the traditional preserves of art. Keynote: Allen Smithee

Custodians of Culture (Friday 12 October) The Museum: Institutions of Market or Measure? will be chaired by Massimiliano Gioni and will explore the changing relationship between museums, artists, their sponsors and patrons. Keynote: Dave Hickey

Cultural Cartography (Sunday 14 October) Does Art Travel? chaired by Philippe Vergne will focus on whether art can really speak across borders. Keynote: Roni Horn
