On Saturday we were able to go to the Frieze Art Fair, a contemporary art fair that goes on every October in Regents Park. They set up this gigantic tent and gallery rooms and had more than 170 different galleries there. It was so cool! It was for sure THE art scene, and there were a lot of great contemporary artists. I know that mom and dad would have liked some of the things there-it is so great that I have parents who like contemporary art! I mean we do have an orange bamboo forest in our living room! ;) Here are some things that I thought were exciting!
Painting by Gerhard Richter-I really like him.
Here is a Frank Stella for mom and dad!
This is a self portrait done by Ryan Gander. I really like how he used glass panels.
A neon light piece done by Tracey Emin. I am really digging neon right now! This fair had a lot of different neon light pieces and fluorescent colors which were fun.
I didn't get this artist's name, but these are pieces of furniture with a kind of rainbow vortex carved into them that I thought was cool!
Piece by Anish Kapoor. I really like him.
I thought mom and dad would like this one!
This is a sculpture by John Chamberlain, another artist I really like. He does these abstract expressionist sculptures with smashed car parts!
PEOPLE OF THE FRIEZE ART FAIR
Another cool thing about the fair was the people that were there! Many of them were funky art hipsters! And there were tons of wealthy people there that were buying paintings for millions of pounds. I know that this is really stalker-like and kind of weird, but I took some pictures of people there because I wanted you too to experience their awesomeness! So here they are!
I loved this girl's hair!
And this girl's hair too!
I also got a granola bar from a little cafe they had set up called Gail's, and it was the best granola bar I have had in my life!!
