The breadth—and relative accessibility—of Frieze Los Angeles means that you needn’t be an art expert to take in some of the best that LA’s arts scene has to offer this weekend. But if you’re seeking a little direction in your gallery hopping, here—with the invaluable help of Vogue contributor (and freelance art advisor) Jocelyn Silver—are a few of the major highlights. Get out there and enjoy!

Stephanie H. Shih: Erewhon Juices Available Now

I’ve long been a near-obsessive fan of Shih’s fanciful yet hyperrealistic sculptural recreations of everyday objects, and her latest project—taking on LA’s obsession with expensive, woo-adjacent beauty and wellness enhancers through a collection of ceramic Erewhon juice bottles—makes me proud to be an Angeleno.

Where to see it: Berggruen Gallery, Booth D07 at the Santa Monica Airport, February 26 to March 1

Barry McGee: 99¢

Los Angeles’s iconic 99 Cents Only Stores shuttered all its locations two years ago, but for one week only, McGee is bringing it back. In collaboration with Jeffrey Deitch and the Hole, the artist has innovatively converted a former 99 Cents Only location on Wilshire Boulevard into a pop-up stuffed with works by McGee and his friends.

Where to see it: 6121 Wilshire Blvd., February 23 to March 1, noon-6 p.m. daily
