| Understanding today's wild art market with journalist and author Georgina Adam | 03 Feb 2025 | 01:22:13 | |
Join me as I chat with the incomparable journalist and author, Georgina Adam. This episode explores the evolving dynamics of the art market, focusing on the misconceptions surrounding art as merely an investment. We discuss the roles of galleries, auction houses, and the overall impact of economic and geopolitical factors on art appreciation and valuation. • Why is the current art market lethargic, or floppy? • The growing trend of viewing art as a mere investment • The state of art galleries today - their challenges and opportunities • How auctions have grown, and how they are driving the market • Art fairs as galleries’ way to compete with auction houses • How to understand artists careers over time, as journey-driven • Emphasis on the accessibility of art experiences for all Georgina Adam has written about the art market and the arts in general for over 30 years, starting in Paris where she studied Islamic art at the Ecole du Louvre. After that she lived in London before spending five years in Japan, where she wrote on a freelance basis for a number of arts publications – The Art Newspaper, The Asian Art Newspaper, Art and Auction and Artnews - as well as Nikkei publishing. She was art market editor at The Art Newspaper in London on her return from Tokyo, and remains art market editor-at-large for that publication. She wrote the art market column for the Financial Times for eight years and continues to contribute collector profiles to the newspaper. She is currently working on a new book.

| Separating price and value with art market journalist Marion Manecker | 19 Feb 2025 | 00:56:18 | |
I am thrilled to share this conversation with journalist Marion Manecker. We discuss how the art market is really a distribution market. Marion suggests dumping the idea that the most expensive art is the best art. He also shares his clarifying ideas about speculators, alchemy, and about the real flex that underlies all art purchases. A longtime art world columnist and auction house insider, Marion Maneker is the founder of Artelligence, a leading source of information on the global arts market. He was formerly the president of ARTnews, a publisher at HarperCollins, and features editor at New York magazine. He currently writes Wall Power, the daily art market email for Puck. o-----------o-----------o-----------o-----------o Notes: Michael Findlay, “The Value of Art” Alfred Taubman, “Threshold Resistance” The Macklowe Collection at Sotheby's Coverage of the Macklowe auction in the New York Times o-----------o-----------o-----------o-----------o This episode is brought to you by SeeSaw - the best way to learn about gallery exhibitions in five cities: New York, Los Angeles, London, Paris, and Berlin.

Welcome to S1 E4 with author, creator, gambler, and collector Jeffrey Magid. I recently met Jeff as his Instagram videos popped up on my phone. I was impressed not only with how generous he came across, but also how unusual it was for a collector to be so open. I knew we'd have a great conversation and I was right! In this episode we discuss how reciprocity and friendship inform Jeff's collecting. He tells us about all the mistakes he's made as a collector, and he shares some truly mindblowing stories of experiences accumulated along his collecting journey.
