Robert Shimshak on collecting contemporary art in today's art world

In this week’s episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, we’re joined by
prominent California-based art collector, Dr Robert Shimshak.
First, Robert shares his evolution as an art collector, acquiring
along the way several works by Ed Ruscha, Sol Lewitt, On Kawara,
Bruce Conner and others. Then, he offers advice for new collectors
that he wished he had received when he first started collecting.
Also, Robert gives his perspective on the current state of the art
market and reveals some significant buying opportunities that
currently exist. Lastly, having lived primarily on the west coast,
Dr Shimshak compares the art scenes in San Francisco and Los
Angeles to New York City.
