Frieze: 10 I’d Buy (2023)
I did this last year, so here we go again.
This post isn’t about the names, the hype or the hottest trends in art. It’s not about the installations designed with social media in mind.
This is about my personal taste as a collector, and which 10 works I’d buy if money and wall space were unlimited. I could sit and stare at these all day long.
Images shown in the order in which I saw them.
NOTE: Details listed are per the booth display text, which wasn’t always fully detailed.
