Pinar Demirdag and Viola Renate’s practice of “scanning contemporary culture” informs their artwork, so when the duo visited London for Frieze, they started out by cataloguing the Dazed office collection of animals and then went on to capture the mobile office of Frieze art dealers in their “eGallery Crops” series. Here Renate and Demirdag present their latest take on Frieze, this time through Instagram. “This collection gives a 612x612 pixel insight to the square artworks of Frieze that are in sync with that custom-friendly social medium of today – Instagram.
