Frieze art fair New York - in pictures

Latifa Echakhch's Tumbleweeds roll incongruously across the Sculpture Park at the north entrance of the Frieze tent. Echahkhch's mirage-like work is a rethinking of classic American midwest imagery, and is one of Frieze's commissioned projects Photograph: Linda Nylind/Frieze

As another of the Frieze New York projects, John Ahearn is recreating his classic 1979 project South Bronx Hall of Fame in which he created live plaster casts of locals. At Frieze's casting station, Ahearn and Rigoberto Torres (also pictured) will be doing live portraits all weekend Photograph: Linda Nylind/Frieze
