A Creative’s Perspective of FRIEZE New York Art Week

IMG_0179Since its launch in 2012, this year was the first time I’ve actually paid a visit to the much talked about cheap neurontin online Frieze New York Art Week. The highly reported art fair was held, as it was in the past, at Randall’s Island Park, overlooking the East River.

What took me so long to get there?

The island is merely a few minutes away from the upper east side via the usual transportation routes. The New York Water Taxi can easily whisk you to the open fields of the island in a matter of minutes.

Wether you’re looking to buy, discover or simply art gazing, a visit to Frieze will most likely feel like speed dating, with more than 200 galleries from 31 countries! The fair showcases an extraordinary cross-section of work by contemporary artists from around the globe, from the newly discovered to contemporary masters (yes, there is such a thing as contemporary masters).

During my whirlwind tour, I got to  enjoy an ambitious array of artist commissions, installations, curated sections showcasing emerging artists and galleries, education programs. At the end of my tour, I met one of the most cheerful, not to mention colorful bird, while heading to an artist talk that shared nuanced perspectives on the world of contemporary art.

Yes, my visit to Randall Island was well worth it, I would say.
