The scope of my world as a "collector/accessorator"
is rapidly expanding ....
interior, furniture, art, & design are becoming one!!!
It became especially apparent last week ....
when I wandered around NYC's first Frieze Art Fair!!!
And here's why ......
Artist Mickalene Thomas is working on a series of paintings
that all references "interiors".
Furniture/sculpture from Max Lamb, Franz West,
Richard Artschwager, Allison Katz
is both for sale by dealers & is being "used" in the booths.
Artists Gelitin, Matt Golden, & Olga Koumoundouros
have incorporated "furniture" into their work.
Martino Gamper's & Hun-Chung Lee's "art" is furniture!!!
And finally ....,,
English gallerist Stephen Friedman's booth
is "furnished" & everything is for sale!!!
This confirms my newest theory .....
there is a single "dialogue" incorporating the worlds of
art, interior, furniture, & design ......
making everything an "accessoration"!!!
