On a chilly New York morning, Frieze New York returned to the city’s Randalls Island Park along the East River. In sharp contrast to the swelter of last year’s affair, this year’s edition was notably cooler—and quieter, with major stalwarts from the fair’s previous editions missing and several newcomers added. Below, a look around the fair. Elsewhere at ARTnews, a full report of the action.
