Bricks-and-Mortar & Acquisitions

false

This panel addresses the role of traditional galleries and the perceived shifting importance of physical spaces to the sales of art; both primary and secondary market. What is the effect of online sales, digital commerce and social media on private and public acquisitions? When dealers are constantly on the road to art fairs, how necessary is the home base in terms of actual acquisitions? In the age of the advisor, and an era where artists are becoming more interested in representing themselves, what is the role of the gallery and the dealer? Does having a 'bricks-and-mortar' space ensure collector confidence? Anthony Reynolds, Founder and Director, Anthony Reynolds Gallery, London
Janice Guy, Co-Owner, former Murray Guy, New York. Moderator: Josh Baer, Advisor and Publisher, Baer Faxt, New York.
