Podcast: Secrets of the Art Fair Patrons

Here's our latest podcast from July 26, where I spoke with three people who between them attend over 100 shows a year and buy at all of them! In addition, they take their friends who also collect the work they find at the shows. Listen to it here:


Here are a few tips from the interview:

  • Geri Wegner's favorite Christmas gift from her husband is a deposit to a special "art festival account"
  • Ed Seidman says that going to an art fair is "like going to a museum with the difference that you can take home the art"
  • Judie Seidman's critique of attractive art fair booths, suggests that an artist might emulate how goods are displayed in high end stores when designing a booth
  • why they never enter a booth where the work looks manufactured

Listen and tell us what you think. What was most interesting to you?
