Listen now
Description
In the final episode with Bound by Creativity author Hannah Wohl, we talk about: her experiences with mega-collector couple Sherry and Joel Mallin, including a purchase the Mallins made that entailed their flying from New York to London just so they could see a work in person before committing to the purchase; and in comparing contemporary art with the arts at large she describes the ‘radical uncertainty’ that goes along with it, how the artists and the art world make decisions within this uncertainty.
