Still park life: Maria Roosen’s Breast Berries on display at Frieze

Breast Berries on trees for Frieze

Louise Jury, Chief Arts Correspondent

A contemporary art exhibition begins this week in Regent's Park.

The Frieze Art Fair, which opens its doors to VIP buyers tomorrow and runs until Sunday, features works by artists including Louise Bourgeois and Eva Rothschild, and Maria Roosen's Breast Berries - a glass sculpture suspended from a tree. A dozen pieces have been installed in the sculpture park.

One of the works will remain in the English Gardens of Regent's Park long after Frieze is over.

Henry Moore Bound to Fail, a tribute to the English sculptor by American artist Paul McCarthy, will stay on display for six months.

Amanda Sharp, co-founder of the fair, said: "It's probably the only art fair in the world in a beautiful park. It seems a shame not to take advantage by putting out wonderful sculptures that thousands can enjoy."

The sculpture park exhibition, organised by the Frieze Art Fair, is free.
