Melanie Gerlis – The Art Newspaper
In this edition of the ArtTactic Podcast, Melanie Gerlis, art market editor for The Art Newspaper, recaps the Art Basel art fair with us. First, following the successful May auctions in New York, Melanie tells us if the market remained red-hot at Basel. Then, she observes and reports on aesthetic trends exhibited at the fair this year. Also, Melanie comments on the increasing divergence in auction sales totals between Impressionist & Modern and Post-War & Contemporary art, if the art world marathon of fairs and sales over the past few months is sustainable in the future and previews this week’s Post-War and Contemporary auctions in London.
