Kulapat Yantrasast’s guest edit of Whitewaller Los Angeles

Frieze Los Angeles‘ debut edition took place February 14—17. The fair saw more than 30,000 visitors, including collectors, curators, critics, civic leaders, and members of the entertainment industry. 70 galleries presented across the tent, designed by Kulapat Yantrasast, and the curated backlot. Whitewall was there, with our first print edition of Whitewaller Los Angeles, featuring Guest Editor Kulapat Yantrasast. We were lucky enough on opening day to get special tour from the architect.

But it is also an inside city, with art, film, music, and technology driving toward new dimensions of culture and social interaction. Having been all over, I really see L.A. as a new creative hub for all of the old and new, Western and Eastern worlds.” […]
