W. David Marx joins Artnet News senior editor Kate Brown on the podcast 'The Art Angle' to discuss his new book, *Blank Space: A Cultural History of the Twenty-First Century*. The book argues that creativity across art, media, and popular culture has stagnated over the past 25 years, driven by commercialization, rapid technology shifts, and a preference for profit-driven formulas over experimentation. Marx identifies a 'conspicuous blank space where art and creativity used to be' and proposes five strategies to revive cultural inventiveness.

Artnet News editor Kate Brown interviews Marc Spiegler, former global director of Art Basel (2007–2022), to analyze the state of the art market entering 2026.

By late 2025, signs of recovery emerged—successful fall auction weeks in New York and a stronger-than-expected Art Basel Miami Beach—and both Christie’s and Sotheby’s reported upticks in projected revenue for the year.
