Randall's Island Park in Manhattan (NY) has recalled the attention and looks of the great collectors, dealers and art lovers around the world in the fourth edition of the Frieze Art Fair.

The fair, twinned with Frieze London, also includes Frame section dedicated to presenting emerging artists in solo galleries. Frieze is also one of the few fairs that focus on contemporary art and living artists, gallery owners consider something very interesting to revalue its products, as Jeff Burch, the director of the New York gallery PACE explains.

The contemporary approach to FRIEZE out in proposals such as the Spanish gallery Crossing Four and original flower vases designed in two dimensions by Mexican Milena Muzquiz that relies on direct action with the audience you are invited to buy flowers as if a florist is involved.
 
The big news which includes the 2015 edition of the fair is the introduction of "Spotlight", a new section for solo presentations of art of the twentieth century, under the leadership of Brazilian Adriano Pedrosa, mimics one of the most applauded his efforts same name on the other side of the Atlantic.
