dealers and advisers trying to live like collectors morning links 1234749862

Art adviser Ralph DeLuca argues in Cultured that recent gallery closures, bankruptcies, and lawsuits in the art market are driven by dealers and advisers trying to live like their ultra-wealthy clients, a lifestyle he says clients resent in commission-based vendors. He also suggests that art focused on identity politics and virtue signaling no longer resonates with collectors, who are shifting toward passion and connoisseurship. Meanwhile, Artsy’s Maxwell Rabb offers a more optimistic take, framing the market downturn as an opportunity for reinvention, with quotes from CLEARING’s Babin and ADAA director Kinsey Robb about cutting through market 'fluff' and embracing creative change.
