ArtTactic

In this week's episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, Adam Green is joined by Naomi Rea, editor-in-chief at Artnet News, to recap Frieze London and preview the highly anticipated Art Basel Paris. Naomi shares insights from her conversations with galleries about the strength of sales at Frieze London and discusses the unique layout changes at the fair, which saw blue-chip galleries placed further back in a structured, funnel-like flow. Adam and Naomi also dive into how this new layout impacted the visitor experience and whether galleries were taking creative risks or playing it safe with their presentations. As Art Basel Paris quickly approaches, Naomi offers her thoughts on how the excitement surrounding Paris may be pulling focus from Frieze and shifting the priorities of collectors and galleries. Finally, they look ahead to the key moments of Art Basel Paris that Naomi is most excited to report on.
