Ronnie Pirovino and Lindsay Griffith on Urban Art, Contemporary Art and NFTs

In this week's episode of the ArtTactic we're joined by Ronnie
Pirovino, contemporary art collector, curator, appraiser and
recognized as one of the early and most prolific collectors of
KAWS’ work and Lindsay Griffith, Head of Department for Prints
& Multiples in New York at Christie’s, ahead of their
co-curated auction Trespassing at Christie's. First, we ask Lindsay
about the intersection between urban and contemporary art as well
as last year's inaugural Trespassing sale. Then, Ronnie shares why
they included a select number of NFTs in this year's auction. Also,
Lindsay explains how robust the art market is at this moment and
why it is doing so well. Further, Ronnie addresses the significant
number of urban art collectors who have expanded their collecting
interests to more mainstream contemporary artists and how that
trend has continued over the past year. Finally, Ronnie and Lindsay
share a few of their favorite artworks in their Trespassing auction
which is live now at Christie's.
