In this week’s episode of the podcast, we recap Art Basel with Naomi Rea, global news editor at Artnet News. First, Naomi speaks about Art Basel being the most important fair in the world and answers if its relevance has diminished at all with the extremely busy art fair schedule. Then, she identifies what types of art sold well at the fair versus art that was slower to sell. Also, Naomi reveals the consensus takeaway regarding where the market sentiment is following the conclusion of the fair. Additionally, she comments on rising primary prices for emerging artists and its impact on demand for their work.
