Bad at Sports Episode 139: Artropolis - a podcast by Bad at Sports

In 1994 Paul Morris, Matthew Marks, Pat Hearn and
Colin De Land had a vision.  That vision was that New York City would
have an art fair. What began as the Gramercy International Contemporary
Art Fair has become the the Armory fair, the jewel in the art fair
empire the Merchandise Mart has amassed over the last 3 years; Art
Chicago, The Armory, Art Toronto, Volta Basel, Next, and Volta NYC.

This
week, Paul "the 'marts Art Czar" Morris and Tony "Boss of Art Chicago"
Karman break down why the Art Fair future is the future. Kathryn Born
and Duncan MacKenzie listen with slack jaws and open minds.

The
weird thing that happened is that Duncan actually started to get behind
Art Chicago and the 'marts future in the Art Business?  WTF?  Did he
drink the Kool Aid? Was he bought off? Or is there reason to believe?
Listen and find out...
