In May, New York City showcases a bustling week of contemporary art, featuring multimillion-dollar auction previews at Christie's and Sotheby's, as well as numerous art fairs and gallery openings. The article emphasizes the dynamic atmosphere of Frieze New York, highlighting standout works like Jeff Koons' striking "Hulk" sculptures and Lorna Simpson's thought-provoking collages at Hauser & Wirth. These pieces reflect the ongoing dialogues around culture, history, and representation, demonstrating the enduring impact of contemporary artists in the bustling art market.
This year, Gagosian Gallery presented a crowd-gathering trio of Jeff Koons' "Hulk" sculptures in a booth fully designed and conceived by the artist. Though each appears to be store-bought vinyl inflatables, all are made from heavy polychromed bronze.
Hauser & Wirth Gallery presented an incredible selection of gallery artists, including these brand new works on paper by Lorna Simpson. Continuing her series of small collages, each is a celebration and questioning of representation, history, and culture.
