Most people have no idea auction previews are open to the public — no ticket, no reservation, just walk in.
Museum quality art, completely free.
We talked about what an auction is on the way over. Part art history, part economics.
And yes, I promised ice cream after. Obviously.

Helen Frankenthaler at Gagosian will move you.
Scale pulls you back. Detail draws you in. As you move through it, the painting changes how you feel and think.
The Moment and the Distance follows Frankenthaler from her breakthrough soak-stain technique to the monumental late, atmosphere-altering paintings. It’s a must see if you’re in New York.

Don’t miss this one. And if you can’t get there — come with me.
Giuseppe Penone: The Reflection of Bronze at Gagosian, 555 West 24th Street. Eighteen works spanning 1995 to the present — a mini survey of one of the most important sculptors working today, curated by Adam Weinberg, former director of the Whitney.
Penone works with fallen trees sourced from his property near Turin, uses bronze he has been casting for decades, and has made sustainability central to his practice long before anyone called it that. The work is about nature, time, and the human condition — and it stops you cold in person.
This Reel is for everyone who can’t make it to Chelsea.
Consider this your private tour.
On view through July 2nd. If you’re in New York, go.

I work in contemporary art. But you cannot understand what’s being made today without knowing what came before it.
Seeing Raphael at The Met. The more you know, the more you see.
Never stop learning. Never stop looking.

I met with the director of Petzel Gallery to walk through one of the most compelling shows I’ve seen this season — and what they shared about the artist’s process completely reframed how I see the work.
Most people walk through a gallery and take it at face value. But when you understand how an artist actually makes their decisions — the materials, their interests, their process — everything changes.
That’s the kind of access I’m here to give you.
