LA's ART FAIR HANGOVER

Nate Freeman: Inside the L.A. Art Hot Spot Gold Rush; Horses!

Los Angeles’s Ultra-Cool Poolside Fair Felix Is Yet Again a Favorite Among Tastemaking Dealers

Frieze: The Meg Cranston Review

Didn't make it to Frieze? Here's the roundup.
+ The dead out paced the living. See Leon Polke Smith, etc.
+ A lot of store bought canvases probably due to supply chain issues.
+ A lot of homemade rugs and other woven things.
+ Gold is in, both gold pigment and leaf.
+ I hear prices remain astronomical, 150—350 for painters under 30. Good for them.
