Frieze showcased an array of contemporary art, attracting famous attendees like CNN's Anderson Cooper and musician David Byrne. Cooper expressed interest in works by Lorna Simpson and Inka Essenhigh, while Byrne admired a piece by Chitra Ganesh. A new show by the Locker Room, titled "Inflation," features balloon-inspired works critiquing themes of value and societal collapse, with artist DJ Morrow highlighting America's descent into populist fascism. Fashion at the fair leaned towards playful statements, exemplified by humorous t-shirts and sweatshirts.
I want to highlight America's descent into populist fascism in this piece, pointing to a trio of falling inflatable cherubs and a foreboding balloon tree sculpture.
A range of balloon-inspired, inflatable and air-filled works that collectively probe themes of value, spectacle, fragility and collapse.
Cooper told us he'd been eyeing works by Lorna Simpson at Hauser & Wirth and was keen on a painting by Inka Essenhigh.
T-shirts and sweatshirts are the fashion statements at Frieze this year, especially with cheeky designs like 'Wikipedia editor in chief'.
