Description

Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! Need art? Need news? Time for a Beesness! We'll be covering the most need-to-know info from Auguest 23rd--29th, including such notable stories as a leadership exodus at blue-chip Phillips auction house, how Europol's warnings of increasingly violent museum thefts connect to two thefts last week, and the US State Department's removal of a “woke” Kehinde Wiley painting. Plus, the age-old problem of figural artwork came up again when police broke into a Vancouver gallery after confusing a sculpture for a person in need of help.
