Every Artist was First an Amateur, and Every Collector was First an Acquirer: Collecting Art Today

In this episode we tackle and decode the art world from the perspective of an aspiring collector.  Everything from how to think about researching artists and galleries, derivative art, the distinction of fine art prints, social media's influence on the art market, and how hype culture has taken over urban art and everything in between.  The best part is we only talk about NFT's for one minute, I promise!  

For those listeners in North Carolina, I also include a list of handy links and references of my favorite galleries and museums in the state.

Show notes are epic as always and can be found right here: http://www.thegrumpycollector.com/grumpyshownotes.html
