  • Love it

    This podcast makes me feel normal….like my instincts about the current art world aren’t off base. It’s also very informative and interesting, full of details that I would never know - being an artist working in the Midwest. “Fresh” is the word that comes to mind.

  • Great ... but a little classist and sexist

    Truly appreciate this podcasts and deeply respect the hosts — but I would like to challenge some of the old fashioned, patriarchal vocabulary used in the critiques. Classist, sexist, and “Greenbergian”language, particularly around “kitsch”, is just tired.

  • Real talk and I’m here for it

    I love love love this podcast that takes the NYC artworld and breaks it downnnn. The hosts are candid, funny and thoughtful and they often relish poking fun at some of the ridiculous Emperors New Clothes-yness of the NY art market. It’s delightfully “Inside Baseball” too which I love. Don’t miss an episode!

  • Yes Please

    Paddy is the best. I’ll attend carefully to anything she produces. We are lucky to have her. There’s so little actual criticism in the art world now, it’s a breath of fresh air to get real opinions by people w good brains and lots of experience. I’m listening to the art fair episode now. Oh yeah. A++
