The Frieze Art Fair loves this:
If you are in New York City this week, please don't bother going to Frieze. It's an expensive rip off. Save your money and read a book or go to the Chelsea galleries next week.
Basically these art fairs are just opportunities for dealers to sell art and this is why the ticket prices are so high (they seem to be around $50). They don't want 'common' people at these fairs - they want folks with dough ray me.
Furthermore, if you want to take a ferry to Randall Island it will cost you $19 or something like that. The tickets to the fair are amazingly expensive and, frankly, a lot of the participants are NY City galleries where you can see the work for free 5 days a week. So WTF!!!!?
The foreign galleries that are represented in this fair are nothing to write home about. Only the wealthiest galleries which show total commercial shit can afford to ship their shit over to Randall Island, so you'll go there and say to yourself, "Wow, this is a lot of meaningless shit passing as art." Don't expect to find experimental work here. Look for that on the Lower East Side, Brooklyn etc.
Basically if you go to Frieze you are a sucker.
