In this week's episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, host Adam Green speaks with James Stourton, British art historian and former chairman of Sotheby's UK, about his new book Rogues and Scholars: A History of the London Art World: 1945 to 2000. Stourton reflects on key moments that shaped the postwar British art market, including the landmark Jakob Goldschmidt auction, the rise of the buyer's premium, and the shift in global power from London to New York. He shares insights into the long-standing rivalry between dealers and auction houses, the decline of certain collecting categories, and whether those markets can ever rebound.

In this week's episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, host Adam Green is joined by journalists Charlotte Burns and Julia Halperin to discuss The Artists Speak Report, a major new survey they authored, commissioned by Anonymous Was A Woman.

We explore why this kind of research is so necessary in an art world that often operates in silos, where artists' voices are too often left out of larger conversations. Charlotte and Julia walk us through how the report came together, unpack some of its most surprising findings, and reflect on what the broader art world can do to better support artists moving forward.

Starting off with the story of his film THE CELLO and how one of the greatest production experiences of his career suddenly turned south… to the making of his upcoming feature (tentatively titled THE MONSTER) and working with Dijon Hounsou (AMISTAD) and Lauren LaVera (TERRIFIER 2 & 3)… to the MUST HEAR second hour about how the three directors each wrestle with feeling responsible for anything that goes wrong on a production even when it was completely out of their hands… to how they deal with the disappointment of working on a project for years only to have it snuffed out in an instant… to how anxiety and depression have made them think they never wanted to make another film again and just what price “suffering for your art” can actually cost you over the long haul… this is yet another one of those conversations we only wish they would present students with in film school.  It may only be March when this episode premieres but it is already a contender for best episode of the year.

It's Hump Day! Sam and Emma speak with Adam Green, co-founder of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC), to recap Trump's joint address to Congress from last night. Then, they're joined by Saikat Chakrabarti, candidate for Congress in California's 11th district, to give some updates on his campaign. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump's speech to a joint session of Congress, Trump's attempted USAID shutdown, US aid to Ukraine, Blackrock's new move on Panama Canal, Trump's IRS cutdown, the firesale of federal properties, Trump v. judges, and OPM's mismanagement, before expanding on Democrats' varying protest tactics during Trump's speech last night, with a highlight on Rep. Al Green's message to get your hands off Medicaid. Adam Green then joins, jumping right into the complete fear of Democratic leadership to simply act, in any substantive manner, to stop or obstruct the Trump Administration, tackling leadership's seeming inability to understand the threat his regime poses to the future of democratic governance in the US, and unpacking what the productive work of Democratic representatives has looked like. After diving deep into Trump's insane breadth of Social Security lies that he fit into his joint session last night, and the direct contrasts we see between this ongoing fight and those under Bush (in 2005) and Obama (in 2013), Green also explores the strong disciplining force of Elon's legitimate threat to primary any Republican that goes against Trump, something very much reflected in Trump's own treatment of US allies. Next, Adam, Sam, and Emma parse through the ideal strategies moving forward, including emphasizing the GOP's departure from their voters' desires, the complete overstepping – both legally and financially – of Elon Musk, and the incredible devastation Trump's funding freeze and mass firings have had on our federal workers, wrapping up the interview by discussing a theoretical “progressive” version of the Laken Riley Act. Saikat Chakrabarti then walks Sam and Emma through the trajectory of his career in Democratic politics, beginning with Bernie in 2016 and helping to run AOC's campaign amid a push for a growing progressive movement, as he explores the mainstream Democratic Party's ongoing failure over the last decade to offer any transformative vision amid a rocketing cost of living, rampant inequality, and a growing fascist movement. After expanding on the parallels we see with the rise of fascism amid the inequality and crises of the 1930s, Chakrabarti looks to the modern day as he unpacks an ongoing push to expand the fight to unseat status-quo-oriented Democratic Leadership like Nancy Pelosi, and how we can support that effort! And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Trump and Chief Justice John Roberts shove the subtlety to the side as they celebrate their successful coup, reflect on Dan Bongino and Pete Hegseth's previous musings on the “leftist” investment firm Blackrock now that they're teaming up to take over the Panama Canal, and Josh in San Diego asks how to address the Democratic inclination to punch left. Tim Walz shows Democratic leadership how to set an agenda (and a narrative), Leftist Big Pharma Plus unpacks Trump's changes to the US healthcare apparatus and student debt, and Fox News solves the egg crisis (buy chickens, raise them at home). David from Spain on the recent evolution of fascism in the US and Spain, Ricky from San Diego on Chinese labor relations, and Mike from Colorado on messaging to mainstream Dems. The MR Crew also parses through Elisa Slotkin's telling Democratic response to Trump, lifting up noted proponents of democracy and liberalism, Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush, plus, your calls and IMs!

Filmmaker Mary Dauterman (BOOGER) joins Adam and Joe to discuss the making of her debut feature film. From how her short film work prepared her for the longer haul of a feature… to how she “looked across” for her local collaborators… to the hurdles of shooting her feature on location in Brooklyn, NY… to how hard it can be to find the right title for a movie about trauma and furry creatures… to the extremely clever promotion when premiering the film at Fantasia… Mary discusses the in's and outs of this very personal film that just so happens to also have plenty of goopy body horror and be one of the more heartfelt micro-budget horror comedies to come along in a long time.

Adam Green panel recorded at Days of the Dead Atlanta on January 26, 2024

In this week's episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, host Adam Green is joined by Alex Gartenfeld, Artistic Director of ICA Miami, to discuss the museum's rapid rise as one of the most influential contemporary art institutions in the U.S. Alex shares insights into ICA Miami's ambitious acquisition strategy, its deep engagement with both Miami-based and global collectors, and how the city's evolving cultural landscape has shaped the museum's growth. With Art Basel Miami Beach cementing the city's status as a global art hub, ICA Miami's exhibition openings have become some of the most highly attended events during fair week. Alex reflects on the museum's relationship with the fair and how it drives visibility and programming. We also preview ICA Miami's upcoming Evening in the Garden gala on March 8, including its benefit auction featuring works by Claire Tabouret, Robin F. Williams, Hugh Hayden, Ken Gun Min, Lauren Quin, and more. As a member of the auction committee, Adam shares how listeners can bid on works and get involved with the event.

In this week's episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, host Adam Green is joined by Artnet News Senior Market Reporter Eileen Kinsella to recap Frieze LA 2025. We discuss the fair's overall atmosphere, how the recent wildfires impacted both attendance and the local art community, and the debate over whether the event should have proceeded as planned. We also highlight major fundraising efforts by galleries to support those affected. From a market perspective, we analyze key sales trends, the growing selectivity among buyers, and which artists and galleries saw the strongest demand. Beyond the fair, we dive into the importance of gallery exhibitions across the city, with standout shows like Kelly Akashi at Lisson Gallery, Lisa Yuskavage at David Zwirner, and Kohn Gallery's 40th-anniversary exhibition. Finally, we reflect on the significance of Frieze LA for the city's evolving art landscape and its growing influence within the broader U.S. market.

PUBLIC VERSION. Filmmakers Scott Beck and Bryan Woods (A QUIET PLACE, HAUNT, 65) return to discuss their latest film HERETIC (available now) and their Iowa movie theater (The Last Picture House) with Adam, Joe, and Arwen. Having last appeared on THE MOVIE CRYPT five years ago (Episode 331), Beck and Woods have been lighting up Hollywood and captivating audiences since they last appeared on the podcast! From their process writing and directing together as a duo… to casting movie star Hugh Grant in what is now considered one of the greatest performances of his career… to creating a single location thriller where the terror is conveyed through dialogue as opposed to jump scares or violence… to working with legendary cinematographer Chung-hoon Chung (OLDBOY)… to the overwhelmingly positive response to HERETIC from critics and audiences alike and the response that those with strong religious convictions have had to HERETIC… Beck and Woods are quickly becoming one of the most successful duos in Hollywood.  Also, Dr. Arwen and the guys provide “Hollywood Therapy” for a listener dealing with crushing grief and Beck and Woods discuss both the hurdles and the triumphs of opening their very own movie theater in their home town. 

PUBLIC VERSION. Acclaimed filmmaker Alex Ross Perry (LISTEN UP PHILLIP, HER SMELL, CHRISTOPHER ROBIN) joins Adam and Joe to discuss his new video essay “Videoheaven” and his massive concert film GHOST: RITE HERE RITE NOW. From reminiscing about video stores… to a mutual appreciation for TROMA and school lunches… to the process behind creating three distinctive, non-linear projects… to spending well over a decade on his most personal passion project about the rise and fall of video stores… to intimately working with the enormously popular pop-metal band GHOST… to his new documentary/concert film PAVEMENTS (in theaters later this year)… this Altman-esque conversation (filled with classic MOVIE CRYPT diatribes and asides) shows just how much Alex is an ever evolving artist that is satisfying his many interests in an industry that typically just wants to box you up like a VHS clamshell.

PUBLIC VERSION. Filmmaker Zach Clark (THE BECOMERS, LITTLE SISTER, WHITE REINDEER) joins Adam and Joe to discuss his career journey and the making of his new Sci-Fi feature. From cutting his teeth in editing and how that impacted his directing craft… to his love and admiration for Russ Meyers and John Waters films… to his drive to go more “hard” genre and the classic films that inspired his alien invasion/body swap/love story/goo covered THE BECOMERS… to how COVID casually worked its way into the writing and shooting of the film… to comfort foods and how he deals with notes from peers… to a hint at his new project (a “castle horror” type film)… Zach is a truly inspiring voice on the indie scene.

PUBLIC VERSION. Writer and show runner Matthew Scott Kane (HYSTERIA!) joins Adam, Joe, and Arwen in the ArieScope Studio to discuss his career journey. From seeing JURASSIC PARK at a Michigan drive-in and falling in love with filmmaking at age 3… to making his first short film with friends and winning the first film festival he entered (only to find out afterwords that there was only one other submission!)… to the famous critic that recommended he try his hand at writing for television… to making the move to Los Angeles and the many assistant jobs he worked at as he honed his craft… to selling his pilot for HYSTERIA! to a major outlet only to have them back out of making it when the pandemic hit… to being down to his last cent with no agent and no hope in sight before getting a surprising phone call that changed everything for him… to his anxiety filled ZOOM pitch with over 80 people on the call… to the process of staffing up his writers' room on his first series… to the writer's strike hitting right as HYSTERIA! was finishing up shooting its first episode and having no choice but to stay on the sidelines until the strike had played out… Matthew's success has certainly not come easily and his story is all the more inspiring because of it! Also, Dr. Arwen provides “Hollywood Therapy” for a listener who is trying to move on in her career and facing the dreaded “but you don't have enough experience yet” road block while Matthew gives Adam the WHITE LION music cue that he had been waiting his whole life to see in a film or television show.

PUBLIC VERSION. Filmmaker Drew Hancock (COMPANION, MY DEAD EX, MR. PICKLES) joins Adam and Joe in the ArieScope Studio to discuss his career journey. From growing up in Nebraska where a career in Hollywood seemed impossible… to going to school for advertising and realizing he was on the wrong path… to the editing class that convinced him to switch majors and go after becoming a filmmaker… to making the move to Los Angeles and finding both his voice and his crowd through the early CHANNEL 101 days… to writing and directing for various television variety shows, award shows, and TV series like BLUE MOUNTAIN STATE, FRED: THE SHOW, JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE, SUBURGATORY, MR. PICKLES, and MY DEAD EX… to writing COMPANION as a spec and getting into the hands of producer and previous MOVIE CRYPT guest J.D. Lifshitz's BoulderLight Pictures… to the director who was originally attached deciding that Drew should direct COMPANION himself… to the process of bringing his terrific thriller to life and the nervousness of being on the verge of its wide release (on IMAX screens across the US this coming weekend!)… Drew is yet another artist who's hit the point of thinking his Hollywood journey may be over only to keep pushing forward and making the dream come true. COMPANION opens in theaters this weekend! 

PUBLIC VERSION. Host and co-creator of the FAKING MICHAEL podcast series Damien Shields joins Adam, Joe, and Arwen to discuss his 14 year journey investigating “the inside story of music's greatest fraud.” From an aunt mistakenly recording a Michael Jackson concert over a football game that he wanted to watch as a kid… to the moment in 2010 that he (and many other fans) first realized that three of the songs on MJ's first posthumous record “Michael” did not actually feature Michael Jackson singing on them… to his search for answers approaching various producers, collaborators, Jackson family members and powerful estate executives looking for the truth… to the decision to turn his investigation into a podcast series… to the crowd funding attempt that introduced him to a very special backer willing to contribute a major piece of forensic evidence to the project… to the interview that changed the course of the episodes he had already produced… to all that went into the technical side of producing such an impressively written, recorded and sound designed presentation… Damien explains how he went from a fan in Australia with no connections to the music industry and no formal journalism training to helping expose one of the biggest art frauds in music history through sheer determination and perseverance.  All thirteen episodes of the FAKING MICHAEL podcast are currently available wherever you listen to podcasts. A must hear!
