The 10 Best Booths at Frieze New York 2019

Artsy: At the ferry stop for boats heading to Randall’s Island this morning, a security guard called, “Frieze art! Art show! Art show!” Step right up. Like a circus, Frieze New York takes place under a giant tent, and draws in bustling crowds that are eager to take in the main attraction.

This seems like a really interesting range of work. I feel like this would probably have a broader range of work than most art museums, since typically museums tend to have a particular theme, plus newer work isn’t going to be in a museum yet (or at least not in most museums, there are obviously exceptions to that). Of this selection of photos, And Now stands out to me the most. I find the rest of them visually interesting to some degree, but there is something that intrigues me more about that one. I think it leaves me with a lot of questions, almost like it is a snapshot in a larger story. In general, I like the surrealness of many of these pieces, and I think that would be even truer if I saw them in person. I also really like the Kasey Kaplan section. It isn’t an installation the way And Now is, but each of the pieces of work as an individual piece is interesting, and those all look more like something I could see in someone’s house (if it weren’t for the price tag).
