When Stuart Morgan died at age 54 in 2002, London's Guardian newspaper wrote, "Stuart Morgan became known during the 1980s in Europe and the United States as the most significant British writer on contemporary art. When he started writing in the 1970s, he knew that, in a country not receptive to contemporary art, the mediating role of criticism needed defending, and he brought to it refinement and audacity. His cadences moved through Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Max Miller, Nathanael West and his beloved William Empson, often in the same essay. The liveliness he brought to his work endeared him to students and those artists whose inner lives he fathomed." This new collection of Morgan's sometimes-diaristic and always illuminating writings and exceptionally well-edited interviews covers artists ranging from Francis Bacon to Joseph Beuys, Pina Bausch, Jeff Koons, Damien Hirst, Richard Prince, Matthew Barney and Tracey Emin.

Since the inaugural Frieze Art Fair in 2003, Frieze Projects, an off-shoot of London's frieze magazine, has pursued an ambitious curatorial program, inviting a selection of emerging and established artists to realize work responding specifically to the fair context. Artists--including Martha Rosler, Lawrence Weiner, Andrea Zittel, Richard Wentworth, Paola Pivi, Liam Gillick, Aleksandra Mir, gelitin and Jeremy Deller--have contributed work ranging from site-specific installations and 35mm films to impromptu performances and print publications. Called the "most exciting showcases of specially commissioned work from new and established artists in the world," by the London Observer, the Projects are accompanied by the Frieze Talks program, which has brought such leading cultural figures as Thomas Crow, Zaha Hadid, Jacques Rancière, Peter York, Linda Nochlin, David Adjaye and Roberta Smith to the podium. This volume is the first printed record of the speaking events, and features texts from the lectures and panel discussions, as well as essays on the commissioned projects.
