In this week’s episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, we recap the May auction season in New York with Zachary Small, lead art reporter at The New York Times and author of the new book Token Supremacy: The Art of Finance, the Finance of Art, and the Great Crypto Crash of 2022. Zachary shares details about the hacking of Christie’s website and its impact on the auction house’s sales. He also explains why prospective sellers at the high end of the art market were reluctant to participate this season and reveals whether there was a softening in the market for speculative, emerging artists. Additionally, Zachary describes the mood of market participants as they exit this auction season and previews his new book.
