AES Talks Legacy with Hrag Vartanian of HYPERALLERGIC
What Should Artists Do With Their Work After They Die?
Guests Jason Andrew and Saul Ostro sit down with Hrag Vartanian in this episode of Hyperallergic’s podcast, Art Movements
Highlight:
Vartanian: What is the biggest challenge when dealing with an artist’s legacy?
Andrew: You load as many archival boxes as you can in the back of your Honda Civic and you process that and you build the relationship. The biggest challenge is that people don’t want to talk about their legacy. They don’t want to talk about dating this painting from 1982. The more that you develop a rapport and confidence with an artist working in their studio you’re able to get around those situations.
