The US conceptual artist Adam Pendleton is deeply interested in systems and processes, themes he explores in his exhibition of recent works at Pace Gallery (Our Ideas, until 9 November) and on the gallery’s stand at Frieze Masters, which he organised. “All artists curate their own shows to a certain extent,” Pendleton says, but this is the first time he has “brought together the objects of other artists in this way”. Inspired by the writing of the art critic Rosalind Krauss, his Frieze Masters show includes pieces by conceptual artists such as Sol LeWitt, Roman Opalka and Robert Ryman, as well as lesser-known names such as Howardena Pindell. “I think there are gaps in the history of conceptual art, and there is room for people like Howardena to occupy more space in that narrative,” Pendleton says. He continues to champion conceptual—and overlooked—artists in his selection of top works at Frieze Masters. Adam Pendleton. Photo: Matthew Septimus 2016
