Frieze Art Fair

Saturday, October 16th:

Another day for the arts... I'm starting to get a taste for it now :) Poor Neil! Hehe! We ventured up to Regents Park for the afternoon. Side note: Regents Park is amazing! Beautifully manicured and exquisite landscaping! I can't wait to see it in Spring. Anyways, we were there for the Frieze Art Fair, a contemporary art exhibition gathering galleries from all over the world :) Lucky me! So we strolled around the outdoor sculpture park, which was interesting to say the least. The picture is what you think... A huge mound of trash.... humm... We saw a sign that indicated performance times, so we naturally stuck around to see what this mound of trash would do. Promptly, as stated, the 'performance' started at 5pm. There were subtle movements coming from the heap... trash can lids popping open, bicycle wheels turning, loud, strange noises and a bubble making device.. just to name a few. This went on for about 10 minutes, then smoke started to come from around and under the pile of trash, and all the sudden, the whole mound started to levitate. Well, we thought, but it was being hoisted by a fork lift type thing. It raised about 15 feet, then lower back down to the ground, then the two artists came out from the refrigerator door. Interesting.

I continued on inside to view the rest of the work on exhibition and the piece shown by Damian Ortega was by far my favorite! I would love to have it hanging in my foyer... that is if I had a 20ft entrance to my home :) Not just yet! Hehehe!

Happy and healthy, and can't wait to see everyone over Thanksgiving!! Not long now!!
