Winter Diary, Bernard Frize’s show at Pace, “features fifteen new paintings that continue Frize’s process-oriented practice of creating work according to systems, rules, and chance.”

The Basquiat show at Gagosian offers the public “a fresh opportunity to consider his central role in his artistic generation as a lightning rod and a bridge between cultures.”
