If there was ever any doubt that the Frieze art fair’s move to New York would influence fair organizers, Untitled puts the question to rest. The inaugural version of this 43 exhibitor fair mimicks nearly every point of success Frieze achieved, and with favorable results. Frieze’s light-filled tent, spacious booths, waterfront view, and fine catering; it’s all transposed at a smaller scale and near perfect pitch. Only one sticking point remains—the sales—and the jury’s still out on that.
