We often look to artists to respond to social and political crises, and our current political climate has no shortage of upheavals to address. Deserts, cities, coasts and seas: these territories are becoming physical and symbolic battle grounds. Are we experiencing a kind of reflex against openness? Why? And what consequences does this tension have on the contemporary art being made today, and on the artists making it? In this participatory, in-the-round summit, we will revisit the previous days’ sessions in the 'Borderlands' series, debate proposals and possible solutions, and invite artists and audience members to weigh in on what can be done.

The discussion will include previous participants and artists in Frieze Talks as well as special guests.

New Museum curator Lauren Cornell moderates a discussion on how artists negotiate personal and psychological boundaries in their work, with artists Yuri Pattison and Jill Magid.

• Lauren Cornell is Curator and Associate Director, Technology Initiatives at the New Museum in New York. She was previously executive director of Rhizome. 
• Yuri Pattison is a London-based artist whose work involves digital media, video and sculpture. As the winner of the 2016 Frieze Artist Award, he has realized a project at Frieze London that explores ‘trending’ data and systems of interpretation or control.

• Jill Magid is an American artist and writer who investigates the boundaries between art and life, the individual and the institution. In her practice, she forms the rules of engagement with a bureaucratic institution – and then subverts the notion of surveillance, control and data manipulation. She has exhibited extensively with solo exhibitions most recently at Kunst Halle Sankt Gallen, and including Tate Modern, the Whitney Museum of American Art and Tate Liverpool. Her exhibition project ‘The Proposal’, which was recently featured in The New Yorker, is currently on view at the San Francisco Art Institute.

The political events of the last year – from the Brexit to the US presidential election – have left our heads spinning. Recent political rhetoric has thrived on the premise of ‘securing borders’, playing on a discomfort and fear about the contingency or fragility of boundaries – between what is understood as ‘inside’ and ‘outside’. How can artists respond to these crises? In a session chaired by Omar Kholeif (Manilow Senior Curator, MCA Chicago), musician and artist Fatima Al Qadiri, filmmaker Omar Al-Qattan, curator Pablo León de la Barra and artist Adelita Husni-Bey debate the role of borders – and how the arts can traverse them – in our current political climate.

Al Qadiri is also a member of the Gulf-based collective GCC, whose work has been exhibited at MoMA PS1, Fridericianum, the Berlin Bienniale and Sharjah Art Foundation. Her writing has appeared in Bidoun, frieze and DIS.

• Omar Al-Qattan is Chair of the Palestinian Museum and the AM Qattan Foundation, a leading independent organisation supporting culture and education in Palestine and the Arab World. In 2008, he established the Mosaic Rooms in London, a cultural space focussed on the cultures of the Arab World which has become the leading institution in it’s field. His early professional life was spent as a filmmaker producing and directing films including Dreams & Silence and Michel Khleifi’s Tale of the Three Jewels shot entirely in the Occupied Gaza Strip.

Husni-Bey’s practice encompasses drawing, painting, collage, video and participatory workshops. She recently completed the Whitney Independent Study Program in New York.

Their solo exhibition ‘Jane & Louise Wilson Undead Sun: We Put the World Before You’ opens at the Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art on 1 October 2016.
