Soho House New York

Next Wednesday, May 15th at 6:30pm, I’m moderating a panel discussion on behalf of @art.hap_ about demystifying the art world. There are a few spots left, which you can rsvp for at the link in my bio. Demystifying the Art World Panel Discussion Soho House New York’s Vinyl Room 29-35 9th Ave, New York, NY 10014 How accessible should the art world be? Is secrecy a key to the art world’s survival? Is it ok to gatekeep who understands and collects art? Does the viewer’s interpretation of art matter more than the artist’s? These are some of the many topics that will be discussed with NYT bestselling author of Get the Picture and reporter, Bianca Bosker, former senior editor of Hyperallergic, Seph Rodney, and gallerist Rob Dimin of Dimin Gallery, with Morgan Everhart of Art Hap joining as moderator.
