There are so few collectors who let us get a glimpse behind the art collecting curtain, and even fewer (maybe just one?) who do it with complete transparency and generosity of spirit! So when we found Jeff Magid on TikTok doing just that, we lost our minds a little and hit follow IMMEDIATELY! Then asked him to be on the pod...then asked again and he agreed! This is a great ep talking to an in dept...

If we told you how many jewels of knowledge Los Angeles based Gallerist Carlye Packer gives us in this episode, you would accuse us of exaggerating, but we aren't!

We get into what her role is as a gallerist to her artists, how she finds artists, wha...

In short Alexis peer pressured Erika to talk to her about AI because she is getting very bored of all the fear mongering about it. There are real conversations to be had, but those headlines and stories are practical and a little boring and probably won't get as many clicks.

Trying to make RAQs a thing! People have been asking things like "who gets to show at a fair?" "should I put an art fair on my cv?"

It's impossible to find a place to start when you're trying to describe a conversation with Gabriel Kilongo - the Founder and Director of Miami's hottest gallery, Jupiter Contemporary. Geographically his story starts in the Democratic Republic of Congo and career wise it is in the kitchen of Brice Marden's studio washing dishes. Don't believe us?

Everyone is pretty familiar with the difference between a gallery and a museum, but where do art fairs fit in?

Mira Dancy, an incredible artist based in LA, just opened a show at Night Gallery and took the time to chat with us about SO MANY THINGS! We asked her about community and finding inputs and unpacking the male gaze and what did she think was going to be the THING to make her career, but turned out to not be? It is incredible! Enjoy!

Watching the trailer for the film, The Art of Making It , is like a trip into the FAQs hottest topic, HOW DO YOU MAKE IT?! Talking to Debi Wisch, we learned not only how she got into filmmaking, but what is interesting about this topic and why make this movie at all? Also, what did she learn making it (heh) and what can we learn from the swath of people they talked to - from artists like Jenna Gri...
