Frieze. 15/10/10.

Yesterday I was saturated to the max with British contemporary art after spending a few hours at this years Frieze Art Fair.

I couldn't sleep so stayed up and wrote a page about how Frieze had left me feeling suprisingly positive about the prospect of being apart of the contemporary art scene.

I may share that with you another time, for now here's a few favourites from my notebook.

Thomas Locher, 'Frame, framed' 2007

Erwin Wrum

Lorna Simpson, 'Cloud' 2005
(Image pinned in sections and grain effect of print relevant to my work)


Katja Strunz

Ellen Gallagher
'O.K Corral' Ink, varnish, cut out printed paper

Walid Raad 'Sweet Talk- Beruit'

A few other names for future research:
