Inside Art Basel Miami with Sarah Douglas of ARTnews and Art in America

In this week's episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, host Adam Green
speaks with Sarah Douglas, editor-in-chief of ARTnews and Art in
America, to recap Art Basel Miami and assess where the art market
stands at the end of 2025. They discuss the fair’s redesigned floor
plan, the renewed momentum that began in London and Paris this
fall, and how that energy shaped expectations heading into Miami.
Sarah shares her take on how the fair performed from a sales
perspective and which artworks and transactions generated the most
attention. Adam and Sarah also consider the shifting global fair
landscape, including the growing influence of Basel Paris on both
Basel Switzerland and Basel Miami. They reflect on how collector
travel patterns are evolving, why sentiment can feel different
depending on where one is standing, and what Miami might reveal
about the year ahead. The conversation concludes with a discussion
of the Zero 10 section, including Beeple’s headline grabbing
presentation and why this area of the fair sparked mixed reactions
among dealers and visitors.
