The flooring of this May’s edition of Frieze New York will be covered entirely by grey carpet. However, the move has left some smaller galleries unhappy because removing it from their booths and replacing it with another material (that might better show off a floor work, for example)could reportedly cost between $3,000 and $15,000, according to some dealers. Dimitri Parisis, the owner of Dimitri Carpet in Hoboken, New Jersey (one of Frieze’s recommended booth contractors), says the upper lim it is probably more like $9,000, depending on booth size and materials. Frieze did not respond to a request for comment.
