Curated by artist Wolfe von Lenkiewicz and Victoria Golembiovskaya the show comprises 68 works of art from both private collectors and art dealers including works by Picasso, Poussin, Rodin, Cezanne, Warhol, Banksy and of course Tracey Emin.

Entry to the exhibition is free but you will need to register for admission. Well worth a look if you are going to Frieze.

Neon Art from UK Artist Jonathan Parsons

Rats 2004, painted argon fluorescent tubing with electrical attachments
overall dimensions variable; tubing:17 x 52 x 5 cm

UK based artist Jonathan Parsons has produced several pieces of neon art over the years and tells me (I've seen the drawings) that he has plans for more. Rats was made in 2004 using 15mm diameter White 1A (6000K) Snow White tubing with 50m/A electrodes, all supplied by Sign-Tec Services and powered by a Mode NeoTran. When finished, the face of the neon was dipped in gloss black block out paint (normally applied to the back of the tubing) stopping any light from passing through the front of the tubing and producing a "halo" effect of white light.

More from Jonathan coming soon.

The Neon Art of Simon Moretti.

Cameo, 2010, neon transformer, cables, overall 45 x 30 x 30 cm

Simon Moretti's latest collection of artworks called Talismen and Yantras include this piece, Cameo. Made from a single cane of 12mm purple  glass, filled with blue gas and using 30m/A electrodes running off a Mode NeoTran. The artwork is three dimensional, not dissimilar to a knot un-tieing, and was made to Simon's precise specification with help from both drawings and a small maquette.

Untitled (VAJRA), 2010, neon, transformer, cable,overall 200 x 90 cm

Untitiled (VAJRA) is made from a single cane of 15mm yellow glass coated 3500K, filled with blue gas, using 50m/A and running off a Mode NeoTran.

Simon's previous neon art works have included Pirate and Striptease.
