Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Curating the Non-Human: Maria Hinel on Art, Philosophy and Animal Agency
Q: Do you mainly select works that already exist or do artists respond to your philosophical idea?
It's a two-way process: she collaborates with artists she has known and also invites responses to specific ideas, sometimes including historical works to enrich the show and emphasize a shared ground across media.
Valuing the Priceless: Antiquities, Provenance and the Art Market
Q: How has provenance changed the market for antiquities?
Provenance has become essential due to legal and ethical concerns, with a shift toward documenting origin and chain of custody to avoid illicit trade and to reassure institutions and collectors alike.
Valuing the Priceless: Antiquities, Provenance and the Art Market
Q: What makes antiquities different from other art forms in terms of value?
Value comes not only from aesthetics but from rarity, historical context, material quality, and the object's provenance, with extensive use of comparisons over long historical timelines to estimate worth.
Inside Art Risk: Protecting Treasured Collections with Blythe Hogan
Q: What is the day-to-day focus of your role with private collections?
Placing collections coverage, advising on bespoke programs, reviewing schedules and locations, and helping clients plan transit, storage, and emergency contingencies while coordinating with carriers and service partners.
Inside Art Risk: Protecting Treasured Collections with Blythe Hogan
Q: How has the role of art insurance evolved over your career?
The work has become more complex and global, with deeper advisory elements, a broader focus on prevention, and a move toward proactive risk management rather than reactive coverage.
