Objects of beauty, artefacts reflecting the societies we live in or provocative, costly flights of fancy: contemporary art has no simple definition. Yet its value has never been more potent or more polemical. Author and journalist Georgina Adams joins us to discuss the intricacies of the market, as we unpack some of the insights provided in her book "Dark Side of the Boom".
Also, as billionaire collector François Pinault opens a French outpost at the Bourse de Commerce, we talk about the proliferation of private art collections and the popularity of their exhibitions.
And Georgina elaborates on the current boom in NFTs, as digital art sales dominate the headlines and the virtual space vies for prominence with the traditional white cube.
