As Frieze fever takes over London, we preview the best satellite exhibitions around town

'Forays: Scan I-IV' by Field

The Old Selfridges Hotel: The ICA takes up residence again this year at The Old Selfridges Hotel to host a weeklong programme of music, art, dance and discussion. Expect esoteric content from the likes of Brooklyn-based dance artist and curator Isabel Lewis who creates ‘occasions’ and artist Korakrit Arunanondchai, (who will also be participating in the ICA exhibition Beware Wet Paint on The Mall and will be showing in Frieze's Focus section). An accompanying talks programme focuses on the impact digital technology is having on contemporary art.

Herald St: In addition to its East London gallery, Herald St has taken up a temporary space just off Golden Square. New works by Norwegian artist Ida Ekblad are showing in both spaces, which, as Herald Street co-director Nicky Verber, points out 'requires a dynamic personality'. Being within spitting distance of Marion Goodman, Sadie Coles and The Vinyl Factory, Verber hopes to attract a different crowd and states ‘Golden Square could be a new art hub.’

Campoli Presti: New York collective Reena Spaulings has used a floor-mopping robot to create series of paintings that go on show at East End gallery Campoli Presti from 15 October. The collective based its colour palette on JMW Turner's stormy skies. Two of the gallery’s other artists, Nick Mauss and Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth are participating in Frieze Projects.

Rolls-Royce: A sculpture of flashing ‘pixel boxes’ lights up the Mayfair showroom of Rolls-Royce for the duration of Frieze. Berlin-based artist Angela Bulloch's one-off piece has the same dimensions, and a similar level of craftsmanship, as a Rolls-Royce Phantom. Bulloch went to the Rolls-Royce workshop in Goodwood to seek inspiration, and was ‘impressed by the technology and quality of leatherwork and veneers that go into the making of all their cars’. Using LEDS for the first time, she adds: ‘The light programme that runs through my 'Cipher of L' piece uses a range of secret colours usually found on the exterior of Rolls-Royce's cars and the work will have a puzzling pattern that nearly never repeats.’

Sotheby's S2 Gallery: When Sotheby’s opened S2, its new gallery space designed by architect David Kohn earlier this year, its mission was to hold blockbusting contemporary shows. So far it hasn’t disappointed, and this week, five sculptures by the late Duane Hanson went on show (and on sale) in the gallery. All are taken from the late American artist’s private estate and feature the obese, the poor and the downtrodden in eerily lifelike poses.

1:54: After its debut success at Somerset House last year, 1:54, a show dedicated to African art, is back. And it’s twice the size. Twenty-seven galleries will showcase works of more than 100 artists from Africa and the Diaspora. Headliners include Beninese artists Meschac Gaba and Romuald Hazoumè and Congolese artist Chéri Samba. A lively seminar programme includes a talk from artist Zina Saro-Wiwa who recently launched the pop-up gallery Boys’ Quarters Project Space in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. To coincide with the opening, online art resource Artsy will sell works from the show. In Fitzrovia, more African art is on show, courtesy of young Nigerian patron Theo Danjuma. A show entitled 'One Man’s Trash (Is Another Mans Treasure)' features pieces from his private collection of 400 works by emerging and established young artists, many of whom are African.

The Saatchi Gallery: The Saatchi Gallery has dedicated an entire floor to a show of contemporary art from Ukraine. It features more than 70 works by 38 artists who range from recent graduates to established names (within their country). Most of the work pre-dates this year’s crisis in the Ukraine, so universal themes of identity and stability are more potent than ever.

White Rainbow: Japan is in the air at this year’s Frieze, what with Yoshitomo Nara’s show at The Dairy, Hajime Sorayama at Evelyn Yard, Shinro Ohtake at Parasol Unit and new gallery White Rainbow. Specialising in contemporary Japanese art, the latter is the brainchild of Japanese collector Yukiko Ito who thinks that artists from her country are under represented in the UK. The debut show features works by young artist Aiko Miyanaga, whose ceramics and sculptures straddle the line between craft and fine art.
