Curious about who keeps the art market functioning in the midst of a global shutdown? For answers we turn to Evan Beard, the Global Art Services Executive with U.S. Trust, Bank of America Private Wealth Management. Evan leads the Bank’s outreach to private and institutional collectors, and shares insights into market trends, the Middle East art market, the genteel world of art lending, considerations when opening a private museum, how auction houses cajole collectors, the Bank of America Art Conservation Project, and the impact of installation art and transitory art experiences on collecting. If you’re a collector or just wondering how those billions of dollars of investments race around the globe, this episode is not to be missed.
