Art\u2019s intoxicating aroma<\/h4>\n

Guests packed a party in Tribeca to celebrate the third Counterpublic Triennial, Coyote Time, launching in September in St. Louis. The event\u2014presented in partnership with your favourite art publication (this one!) and Frieze New York\u2014was filled with trendy people keen to hear about the Midwestern public art event, featuring works by 50-plus artists. Guests were impressed by the swag, with baseball caps and silk scarves on offer among the cocktails and canap\u00e9s. Noses twitched when an eau de parfum created by the artist Emma McCormick Goodhart\u2014Cave 0, developed by her scent studio, Ecdysis\u2014was \u201cdiffused into space and on cocktail glassware\u201d, providing a sweet odeur. \u201cWhat a brilliant olfactory experience!\u201d declared a delighted partygoer.<\/p>\n

A Shed full of celebs<\/h4>\n

There were famous faces at Frieze New York\u2019s VIP preview on Wednesday. These included the celebrity.land news anchor Anderson Cooper browsing the aisles, no doubt hoping to add to his burgeoning contemporary art collection. Other stars in attendance were the artist and REM singer Michael Stipe\u2014who graced the cover of New York magazine\u2019s Look Book\u2014and the art-fair veteran Leonardo DiCaprio. We are told Leo was holding hands with his mother (bless), with the art adviser Ralph DeLuca by his side. Fellow actor (and visual artist) Sharon Stone also made an appearance, while our spies also spotted Julia Fox at the Shed.<\/p>\n

Following the music<\/h4>\n

A new commission and performance by the Ogl\u00e1la Lak\u021f\u00f3ta artist Kite at the Shed is turning heads. Kite\u2019s all-encompassing musical interludes with a small ensemble are fast becoming a highlight of Frieze New York. As the composer and performance artist has described her project: \u201cThe walls feature the design of Lak\u021f\u00f3ta symbols rendered\u00a0from dream discussions with St. Louis community members\u2026 We travel through the fair as a group of musicians to play these symbols as a graphic score.\u201d This journey through the fair, up and down the escalators and across the corridors, is beguiling but also a little challenging for some visitors. \u201cI can\u2019t follow that music up and down those stairways,\u201d quipped one dedicated but drained follower.<\/p>\n

Strike a pose<\/h4>\n

The great and the good of the art world are being photographed for a special version of New York magazine\u2019s Look Book\u2014a compendium of the cr\u00e8me de la cr\u00e8me of luminaries gracing Frieze New York. The Look Book, a staple of local events like the New York Film Festival, hits the Frieze fair bins daily and features a selection of portraits snapped in a special photo studio on the fair\u2019s top floor. Frieze London director Eva Langret lined up for a pic on the first day, as did the collector Beth Rudin DeWoody (the singer Michael Stipe and collector Christy Ferer were included in the first issue). How did Rudin DeWoody feel about having a possible starring role in the Look Book? \u201cThe problem is you can\u2019t smile,\u201d she told us, \u201cbut I threw a few smiles in.\u201d What a rebel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
