WSJ's Kelly Crow recaps the May NY major auctions

In this week's episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, Kelly Crow,
reporter for The Wall Street Journal, joins us to recap the May New
York Impressionist & Modern and Post-War & Contemporary
auctions. First, Kelly touches on the surprising surge in prices
seen at auction for artworks in the middle of the market. Then, she
addresses the reasoning for the softening witnessed at the top of
the market. Also, Kelly shares a few of the sales results that made
her say "wow". Then, she discusses the incredible prices achieved
for the lots donated by African American artist at Sotheby's for
the Studio Museum in Harlem and if a bubble may be emerging for
some of these artists. Lastly, Kelly explains why Sean Combs' $21
million purchase of Kerry James Marshall's Past Times may be the
start of some much needed diversity in the art collecting
community.
