Collectors Talk | Trans-Pacific Collecting
What is Trans-Pacific collecting, and how does one go about producing a collection that crosses borders and cultures? How are collecting practices evolving, and what concerns do collectors have when it comes to engaging with an artworld that is expansive, diverse and complex? Further to this, what have collectors today learned from the artworld they are engaging in – from the artists they encounter, to the art scenes they are exposed to? These are among the questions that will be explored by this panel of established collectors.
