Frey, a seventh-generation basket maker, joins a long line of Wabanaki people to practice the age-old craft. But Frey, a 2025 MacArthur Fellow, doesn't let himself get stuck within that tradition. "I'm weaving to innovate," he explains of his work, which, through nuanced use of technique, material, and color, pushes the craft form squarely into the realm of fine art.
"The Fine Art and Design sale brings together an exciting selection of works that reflect some of the most enduring ideas in modern and contemporary art. You'll find pieces that explore the human form as a space for storytelling and identity, alongside works that offer nuanced perspectives on sexuality."
Before he was a filmmaker, David Lynch was a painter and, if you're familiar with his esoteric filmmaking practice - peppered as it is with some of cinema's most indelible imagery - it all makes a lot of sense. A year after the auteur's passing, a newly opened show at Pace Gallery's Berlin space, Die Tankestelle, foregrounds Lynch's career-spanning fine art practice and its inextricable link to his cinematic oeuvre.
"David has always used photography as a seductive device, a sublimation of his desire. His pictures of people feel tactile because one senses his desire to touch, but never in an aggressive or insistent way. This book is a love sonnet to American style and the Boy as icon."
