Art on Paper returns to Pier 36 this March 8-11 for the fair's anticipated fourth edition. Featuring eighty-five top galleries presenting paper-based art, Art on Paper will include a program of special projectsthat highlight the diversity of paper, pushing the boundaries of the medium out into the fair's public spaces.

At the Art on Paper entrance, Walter Maciel Gallery will present Understory by Timothy Paul Myers and Andrew Barnes. The life-size installation replicates a suburban basement, complete with the furnishings and objects typically found therein. The laundry machine, old bed frame, ping pong paddle and coffee maker all have their place amongst the piles and crowded shelves that make up this catch-all space. Myers and Barnes transform this familiar room by meticulously wrapping these every day objects in a layer of flesh colored, paper-based felt. The uniformity created from this tonal wash further obscures the boundaries and individuality of these every day items for the viewer.

Julio Valdez Project Space will present Michele Brody's Reflections in Tea, an interactive, long-term project inspired by the worldwide tradition of drinking and sharing tea. Initially envisioned as a mobile tea house, Reflections in Tea emphasizes the invitation to enter and share tea within a semi-private space. Each ceremony focuses on the sharing of stories within the context and history of one’s community, after which participants are asked to inscribe their impressions onto the stained paper filters used to brew the tea. These tea notes are then hung together with past tea stories, culminating in the creation of an ever-growing installation of fluttering paper quilts.

Garvey | Simon will present several life-size sculptures by Will Kurtz. Created out of newspaper with an internal structure of wood and wire, Kurtz's subjects are real, everyday people who are often undistinguished and living on the margins of society. They have a familiarity of someone you might know or have passed on the street. Kurtz captures their resilience and vulnerability to embody a true empathy for the hardships we all share.

Forum Gallery will present two large-scale charcoal on paper works by William Beckman, The Bull Series #10 and Bathers. Throughout his career, Beckman has used media in unconventional ways. His drawings were honored with a retrospective exhibition organized by the Columbus Museum, GA, and then traveled to the Arkansas Arts Center in Little Rock. His work is included in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery, the Columbus Museum, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Joseph H. Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, The Art Institute of Chicago and the Frye Art Museum, among others.

Heather Gaudio Fine Art will present Jae Ko's FLOW from the Force of Nature Series. Dating back to 1996, the Force of Nature series looks to kraft paper rolls and other industrial paper commonly used for wrapping and packing. By shifting from the medium’s flatness to its spatial configuration, Ko amasses and transforms large quantities of paper into installations either by bundling them tightly, stacking them up, or pilling them against the wall, which in turn produces folds, pleats, and gaps. With such an interplay of line and volume, movement and solidity, the Force of Nature series evokes forces of nature: arctic glacier, rolling hills, ocean tides, or blowing wind.

A Perfect Match: Frieze Announces New Contemporary Fair in Los Angeles to Launch in February 2019

Frieze Announces New Contemporary Fair in Los Angeles to Launch in February 2019

Bettina Korek Appointed Executive Director of Frieze LA; Ali Subotnick Appointed Curator

Frieze today announces the launch of a new annual contemporary art fair in Los Angeles, presented at Paramount Pictures Studios. Premiering February 14 –17, 2019, Frieze LA will join Frieze New York, Frieze London and Frieze Masters on the international art-world calendar, reflecting Los Angeles’ position as a global arts capital. Frieze has appointed Bettina Korek as the fair’s Executive Director, working with Victoria Siddall, Director of Frieze Fairs to launch the inaugural edition of Frieze LA. In addition, curator Ali Subotnick will oversee a site-specific program of artist projects and film at the fair. Frieze New York and Frieze LA will together present a unified voice for Frieze in the Americas.

“So many great artists and writers have lived and worked in Los Angeles, a city with an incredibly rich landscape of museums, galleries and art schools which play a pivotal role in the international art world. Frieze LA will add an exciting new dimension to this thriving cultural scene,” stated Victoria Siddall. “Frieze is in a unique position to create a successful fair in LA because of our experience in London and New York and our partnership with Endeavor, who have deep roots in LA and will work with us to bring a fantastic audience to the fair. As with all our fairs, Frieze LA will be at the heart of a dynamic week during which international collectors, curators and artists will come together to engage with and appreciate the city and everything that makes it great.”

Frieze LA will bring together around 60 of the most significant and forward-thinking galleries from across the city and around the world at Paramount Pictures Studios, a historic studio lot located in Hollywood. Presented in a bespoke structure designed by Kulapat Yantrasast of wHY, the program will celebrate the exceptionally dynamic and diverse culture of Los Angeles and its global contributions to the visual arts.

Frieze has appointed Bettina Korek as Executive Director for Frieze LA. Korek brings more than 15 years of art world experience as an arts advocate, writer, and founder of ForYourArt. A native of Los Angeles, she has organized the Participating Gallery program for the Getty’s Pacific Standard Time initiatives and is a member of the Los Angeles County Arts Commission. In addition, Los Angeles-based curator Ali Subotnick will oversee a sitespecific program of artist projects and film at the fair. Formerly Curator at the Hammer Museum (Los Angeles), where she is currently Adjunct Curator, Subotnick also co-curated the inaugural edition of the Hammer’s biennial exhibition Made in LA (2012).

Participating galleries, programs and further curators will be announced later this year.

Further Information

Frieze LA will take place February 14-17, 2019. The next Frieze fair will be Frieze New York, taking place May 4–6 2018, with Preview Days on May 2 and May 3.

Kurimanzutto today announced the opening of Signals: If You Like I Shall Grow,

kurimanzutto today announced the opening of Signals: If You Like I Shall Grow, a major exhibition reimagining pioneering art gallery and convening space, Signals London (1964-1966). This is the first exhibition to reunite the works of each of Signals London’s three founding artists, David Medalla, Gustav Metzger, and Marcello Salvadori, tracing the global impact resulting from the confluence of interests at Signals London.

Signals London is celebrated internationally for its ground-breaking series of solo exhibitions, by artists including Lygia Clark, Jesus Rafael Soto, and Mira Schendel, and as a critical platform for creating aesthetic relationships between the diverse national and international avant-garde networks orbiting its founders. The exhibition was conceived by kurimanzutto co-founder José Kuri and curated by Dr. Isobel Whitelegg, in close collaboration with original supporters and founders of Signals London. The exhibition will be presented at Thomas Dane Gallery in London from June 8 – July 21, 2018. 

For more information on the exhibition, please see the following link to the press release. 

Very Best,

Ellie
