'Victoria Miro’s booth buzzed with ebullient energy during the opening hours of Frieze New York this year, with collectors congregating amid the London gallery’s presentation of works by artists including Alice Neel, Chantal Joffe, and Hernan Bas.'
'The showcase brought together a mix of historic and contemporary works that spanned painting, drawing, and photography. Many of the pieces in the booth explore figuration and its changing role across art history. Anchoring the booth is Paula Rego’s large-scale work on paper, The Death of the Blind Sister (2007), depicting a monumental, careening female body—emblematic of the Portuguese artist’s dynamic style. The work complements the exhibition “Paula Rego: Story Line,” the largest ever exhibition of her works on paper, now on view at the gallery in London.' —Katie White
