17. Compilation - Art Basel Qatar, Buyer's Premiums, Modigliani Cat Res, and Politics in Venice

The Art Market Podcast team are on summer holidays, so we have put together a special compilation of clips - four of the most popular and still relevant conversations from earlier in the year, for the new listeners who've joined along the way. Our first ever topic, Art Basel Qatar and the perennial question of whether the Gulf becomes the next great art hub. Then, why auction buyer's premiums keep climbing towards thirty percent, and the auction revenue trap that that keeps forcing them up. Next, the new Modigliani catalogue raisonné, the hundred newly accepted works, the thirteen demotions, and the lawsuits and chilled authentication that surround it. And finally, an edited highlight from the Venice Biennale special, focusing on the politics, and the Russia row that has just cost the Biennale a two-million-euro EU grant.
