Among the
booths that should not be missed are: Chewday, which will have works by Gabriele Beverage juxtaposed with Neolithic idols; Arcadia Missa, with London - based artists; a
virtual reality project by Jon Rafman at Jesse Seventeen; and a
painting installation by Celia Hempton at Southard Reid.
With over 190
booths at the fair, whittling the «best» down to seven is an impossible task, so a hat - tip to the following notable mentions is more than warranted: Salon 94's expansive female - dominated
booth, with Laurie Simmons's and Marilyn Minter's works in mischievous conversation, a large - scale
painting by Lorna Simpson that comes from the same series that debuted in Okwui Enwezor's «All the World's Futures» last week, and the delicate - meets - hardcore jewelry of sculptor Kara Hamilton; Kate MacGarry's sparse but refreshingly textural
booth, where works by Josh Blackwell, Marcus Coates, Florian Meisenberg, and Francis Upritchard play off one another; Standard (OSLO)'s solo
booth featuring Ian Cheng's
virtual world; Andrea Rosen Gallery's Michael St. John - curated
booth, featuring the likes of William Eggleston and Dash Snow; Galerie Buchholz's brilliant pairing of cross-generational counterparts (and Venice favorites) Simon Denny and Isa Genzken; and The Box's presentation of Judith Bernstein's sexually charged two - dimensional works.
