This publication coincides with the exhibition New & Recent Work by Fredette Frame held at the Owens Art Gallery from 21 January to 5 March 2000.

The nine paintings of Ok, I Want to Get Off the Phone Now and the related work, The Four Brushmen of the Apocalypse, are part of an ongoing series by Sackville artist Fredette Frame of individual “portraits” of well-known New York artists, including Eric Fischl and David Salle, and New York dealer Mary Boone. The exhibition is accompanied by Steven Harris’ insightful analysis and important contextualization of her work, providing the first extended writing on her production.
