Kathryn Maple’s paintings at Frieze No.9 are dense in a way that rewards slowing down. Beneath the Swamp Cypress: trees as structure, light as argument. Work where you stop thinking about the painting and start thinking about the place it came from.
Across the road at Gazelli — the Derek Boshier survey makes a case for why the British Pop generation still matters. Political, flat, funny, strange. Hockney’s early work next to Caulfield and R.B. Kitaj, and none of it feels like archive.
Two shows, one afternoon. Both worth the walk.
