Frieze announced today that Abby Bangser, formerly the head of the Americans Foundation for the Serpentine Galleries, will be the new Artistic Director for the Americas and Asia. It’s part of the restructuring that saw Frieze co-founders Matthew Slotover and Amanda Sharp handing the reigns over to Victoria Siddall, and taking on more advisory positions.

But does this mean we’ll be getting a a Frieze Hong Kong anytime soon? The brass denies it, but who knows.

In a surprise move, Frieze art fair announced on Thursday that in 2015 Victoria Siddall will become director of Frieze London and Frieze New York.

The fair’s co-founders, Amanda Sharp and Matthew Slotover, the current directors, said that the appointment of Ms. Siddall, who will also retain her position as director of Frieze Masters, will “give us the opportunity to focus on the future and to explore new projects for Frieze.”
