What grabbed us about this issue…
Issue 247 is dedicated to the American South and the Suzanne Jackson profile is the place to start. Jamey Hatley catches the artist ahead of her solo show at Ortuzar Projects in New York. Jackson’s long career and the renewed attention it is receiving makes this a timely portrait. Edna Bonhomme’s essay on the Caribbean diaspora in Miami gives the issue a broader geographical frame alongside the more focused profiles.
Who’s Frieze for?
With a finish that feels closer to a catalogue than 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.
