WN on the Scene: New Contemporary Art Fair

New York City’s Randall Island Park hosts beginning today the Frieze Art Fair, described by The New York Times as “a one-stop-shopping survey of the state of contemporary art” and “a kind of trade show as fun fair, both commercially down-and-dirty and aggressively high-minded at once.” Helen Klisser During, director of visual arts at the Westport Arts Center and WestportNow contributing photographer, was on hand Thursday for a VIP preview. The show runs only through Monday and all tickets must be purchased online in advance here. Helen Klisser During for WestportNow.com
