Published eight times a year, Frieze is a magazine centred on contemporary art and culture, with a permanent gallery space in London and art fairs held in London, New York, LA and Seoul. What grabbed us about this issue… This issue contains an eclectic mix of work, joined together by the power of taking an imaginative leap. We kept coming back to an interview with film maker Shu Lea Cheang, exploring trans and gender nonconforming life in present day America. If you liked this issue’s front cover, you might enjoy the profile on the artist: Donna Huddleston. And if you’re looking for a more considered read, there’s an essay titled ‘1,500 Words’ to sink your teeth into. Who’s Frieze for? With a finish that feels closer to a catalogue than a throwaway read, Frieze is one to reach for when you want to find out more about the contemporary art scene. It’s timely, with advertisements and reviews that point you towards projects that are happening now. Think of it as an exhibition guide, interspersed with longer pieces and artist profiles that sit with an idea a little more. It’s one we return to for its way of looking at art without overcomplicating it. Type: Special interest, mixing long-form with photography Pages: 156 Instagram: @friezeofficial Show more
