Frieze New York, (May 6-10) it was a pleasure. In March 2020 I never thought I would utter the words, “I really miss art fairs,” and yet that is a sentiment I have felt multiple times over the past year. Huge, huge kudos to @friezeofficial for pulling it off during this rule-laden and restrictive time. Herewith a few of my favorites from the booths: Julie Mehretu aquatint etching at White Cube, Sophie Calle hidden and exposed at Perrotin, Ewa Juszkiewicz at Gagosian, Dana Lok “Fermented Sentence” at Clima, Otis Houston Jr at Gordon Robichaux, Darren Bader silkscreen on canvas and He Xiangyu oilstick on paper at Andrew Kreps and Gabriel Orozco sculpture and tempera painting at kurimanzutto. #juliemehretu #sophiecalle #ewajuszkiewicz #danalok #otishoustonjr #darrenbader #hexiangyu #gabrielorozco

Hoping that entering one’s fifth decade allows for extended leeway on the yawning gap between event date and social media post. Here is the first of a few highlights of what has transpired at PFA in the past month. First of all, Zona Maco happened - albeit in a gallery-visit, non-art fair form - the last week in April. This Gabriel de la Mora diptych of turkey feathers and human hair was acquired by a client in Texas. One of the five April 29 paintings from Wilfredo Prieto’s “Fake News” series, wherein the artist interpreted, through painting, images seen daily for three weeks on websites known for dispensing misinformation. A detail of Jorge Méndez Blake’s “Dismantling Flaubert (Bibliomania) X,” 2020. And finally, a few pics from my week in Mexico City and Valle de Bravo, and the fantastic, covid-free-but-not-turista-resistant people who made my birthday week so special. Shout outs especiales a @slapnyc y @geoffkarren for your Herculean efforts - love you both sm!

Olafur Eliasson’s aptly named Your ocular relief at Tanya Bonakdar. If your Covid-times, Zoom-strained eyes could use a mental break, park yourself in the darkened gallery and feast them on this mesmerizing light show. #olafureliasson

Thank you @the_graymarket @juliahalperin @artnet for including me in your article analyzing the chasm between female and male artists at auction, and the related abundance of male collectors who bid on them. A quick scan of artists with current gallery shows in NYC thankfully reveals much more parity between the sexes on the primary market...here’s hoping that this balance will wend its way to the secondary market, as well.

Every time that I visit galleries in nyc this fall

Every time that I visit galleries in nyc this fall, I thank my lucky stars to work in a creative field that can be somewhat functional during this s*%tstorm. So many great shows up right now...Cecily Brown, Cindy Sherman, Amy Sillman, Titus Kaphar and Inka Essenhigh among them. Rooting for theater and music to follow art’s suit soon! #cecilybrown #cindysherman #amysillman #tituskaphar #inkaessenhigh
