For centuries on the Great Plains, �gures and symbols recorded on rock or hide ful�lled a need to communicate beyond words. It was only when paper became available after the Civil War that the Plains Indians sought this as a practical and convenient medium. Once examined solely as histo rical documents, ledger drawings, which �ourished from around the 1860s to the 1920s, are now considered complex works of Art that illustrate and re�ect the �nal decades of nomadic life on the Plains.

Zipora Fried had a solo show at Sikkema Jenkins & Co. this past winter which was fantastic. Several of my clients acquired work from that show and each one looks terri�c in its new home. Process and endurance are fundamental themes of Fried’s practice. She succeeds in creating amazing texture in these large colored pencil drawings. Extraordinary scale and impact for the price. She’s an amazing colorist. A classic example of the colored pencil drawings for which Fried has become known, tapping into that interstitial moment that rests between the conscious and the subconscious, providing a physical rendering of those foggy �ashes when one just wakes up from a dream. A pure colorist, Zipora commands vast swaths of paper with a colored pencil, energetically covering the sheet with short strokes in geometric patterns. Her vocabulary is derived from Minimalist masters such as Edda Renouf and Irma Blank, yet writ large, the compositions exhibit object connotations, such as �ags or blankets. https://frieze.com/article/25-works-under-25k 12/28 5/11/2020 25 Works Under 25K | Frieze Zipora Fried, Reparative Imagery, 2020.

This work is from an ongoing series in which Gupta asks people to draw the outline of their country from memory. She then gathers these individual sketches and superimposes them atop one another, the result of which yields a hazy representation of borders, both literally and guratively. This conceptual work addresses the timely issue of national identity as an arbitrary construct.

Frieze, p.14 This work is from an ongoing series in which Gupta asks people to draw the outline of their country from memory. She then gathers these individual sketches and superimposes them atop one another, the result of which yields a hazy representation of borders, both literally and guratively. This conceptual work addresses the timely issue of national identity as an arbitrary construct.

One of the leading German minimalist artists of the post-war period, Imi Knoebel’s art is both abstract and wonderfully colorful. I think this work on paper captures what is best about his work at a great price. We admire the freshness and the strong trace of the gesture of the watercolor in opposition to his hard edge abstraction.

Ellen Lesperance, The Pink and the Black Triangle, 2020 , gouache and graphite on tea stained paper, wool sweater hand-knit by the artist. 22 x 29.5 inches. sweater: dimensions variable. $13,500. Courtesy of Derek Eller Gallery
I love how the artist mixes traditional “women’s” art with political activism. The work not only signals a feminist and radical message but is also delicate and beautiful. I like how she deconstructs knitting into an abstract language imbued with feminist concerns. Lesperance even throws in a performance element—wear a warrior sweater and create an act of courage if you like. In the end the works them selves are so delicate and beautifully detailed, softer and quieter, making you work to nd the connection to real moments in history that required such a powerful commitment to a cause.

One of the most interesting Italian Modernist artists, probably more known for his whimsical metal sculptures. However during his lifetime ceramics played an important role in his oeuvre as a medium to make both art and utilitarian objects. I have been thinking about Faust Melotti and Lucio Fontana ceramics a lot lately so this is a treat for me to see. I like the simplicity and rawness.

Rife with visual precedents, Moyer’s compositions reference Color Field, Pop Art and 1970s Feminist art.

Neri is funny and smart—her in-your-face ceramic sculptures are whimsical and sexually confrontational at the same time. Ceramics and sculptures are in her blood, and it’s cool when they are produced in this gra�tied, cartoony way—following in the enduring tradition of artists like Arneson and Frey. This exuberant painting o�ers us all those appealing features.

Prouvost's Art is all about the confusion of being stuck in the midst of misunderstanding and mistranslating ideas and concepts through verbal language. Over the past decades the artist has built up an extensive vocabulary of "relics" - her word for objects that form part of a larger story. She ascribes speci c meanings to many objects, and has even published a dictionary of her most-used concepts, a ll as a poetic way of showing how language can act as a catalyst for our other senses. This conceptual work is part of an ongoing series wherein Prouvost calls on the viewer to investigate the space between what is vs. what is desired. We each conjure our own personal observation of the words represented here, making our own mental artwork. And I love that she included the words "wild" and "dry," as if your typical yard-con ned green bladed grass would not be enough of a thought experiment.

Inspired by volcanic eruptions, Brian uses un�red clay objects that are broken apart, and then builds them up with more material, �ring between each layer of glaze to produce masses or craters that over�ow with presence and character.

Coming from Detroit, I've long been a fan of the Chicago Art scene, in particular The Monster Roster, The Hairy Who, and The Chicago Imagists. Along with H.C. Westermann, Nancy Spero, Jim Nutt, Gladys Nilsson, Christina Ramberg, Roger Brown, and others, Wirsum developed a vibrant and vulgar approach to art making. Acidic color choices, thick black outlines, jazzy psychedelic patterns, and an adolescent sense of humor pervade the work that often verges on the grotesque or cartoonish.
