At first glance, non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, would seem to have little place in the world of fine art. After all, they've only been around for nine years, and during that time, they've developed a reputation as an abstract form of digital currency only fully understood by tech-savvy early adopters. The mere mention of NFTs raises a bit of skepticism in some circles, partly because not many of us comprehend the technology behind them. Ask someone to explain NFTs and blockchain technology in layman's terms, and you're likely to hear plenty of stammering and double talk, but our newest episode of Absolute Trust Talk will provide a welcome reprieve from that. Kirsten Howe's guest is Claudia Worthington Hess, who brings an unusual combination of 40 years of experience in the art market and a thorough knowledge of NFTs to the discussion. A member of the Appraisers Association of America (AAA), Claudia is a certified fine art appraiser who works with museums and other clients throughout the US and Canada on insurance, donation, and estate appraisals. After founding Hess Art Advisory in 2010, she eventually broadened her focus to accommodate the rapidly growing role that NFTs had come to play in the realm of fine art, prompting her to co-found New Media Art Advisory. Her new book, NFTs: A Handbook for Art Lovers, results from 17 months of research on this often-misunderstood topic. In this episode, she'll explain why NFTs and fine art — two worlds that seem to have nothing in common — are a natural fit for each other and why NFTs are here to stay, becoming more prevalent in the future. She'll also provide some interesting perspective on just what goes into determining the value of a given piece of art — much like the fundamentals of NFTs, this is a process that also leaves many of us mystified. We will also discuss: The various events that prompt someone to hire an art appraiser and the distinction between “retail/replacement value” and “fair market value” that not only guides the appraisal process, but also result in a different valuation for each of these. Why, as entertaining and compelling as it might be, the story behind a given piece of art is often misleading and shouldn't play a part in the appraisal process. The role that NFTs currently play in the world of fine art and why they're likely to take on an even more prevalent role in the future — some of the statistics that Claudia will provide are sure to surprise you! How NFTs can benefit artists in the future by providing solid proof of agreements between artists and galleries. Some actual appraisals Claudia has made not only run contrary to the images most of us conjure up when we think of high-price artwork but also resulted in welcome surprises for art enthusiasts who bought wisely and held on for the long run. And more! We hope you will join us as we take a look at the world of art appraisal, the rise of NFTs and the connection that's been growing between these two seemingly disparate worlds.

Everyone is talking about NFTs—but what do they really mean for artists and art collectors? Today, you'll hear from Ronnie Pirovino, a widely recognized collector, curator, and appraiser who hails from Denver, Colorado. After his art collection grew to prominence, Ronnie left his successful career in digital advertising to focus on his passion for art.

He has partnered with Christie's on https://www.christies.com/en/auction/trespassing-21280-nyr/ (Trespassing), an ongoing series of auction sales that trace graffiti's influence on contemporary art, and he acts as chief curator at https://lgnd.art/ (LGND.art), an innovative platform built by artists, for artists, at the intersection of art and technology.

Career transitions are often bumpy. New processes, different people, and all the energy that goes into building the skills, network and momentum- no wonder why the comfort of a stable career is prevents many people from pursuing their calling. Change isn't easy. Now imagine you're a working attorney with a promising future and more than a decade of education, testing, and training to get to where you are. That's the scenario my guest on the show today, Maria Brito found herself in. She recalls, "For the years I was an attorney, it was like I had a fake identity." It was clear that law was not her calling. Fast forward to today's episode, and Maria is now an award-winning contemporary art advisor, author, and curator. She has written for publications such as Entrepreneur, Huffington Post, Elle, Forbes... the list goes on. Complex Magazine named Maria one of the Top 20 Power Players in the Art World. She now teaches creativity courses in companies and, in 2019, she launched “Jumpstart”, an online program on creativity for entrepreneurs based on years of research and observation in both the areas of business and art. The episode is filled with advice for making a career transition, ideas for jumpstarting your creativity and explores how a lack of experience can be an advantage. Highlights from the show: While educating clients and creating content isn't directly revenue-generating, Maria describes how a less transactional approach to the art business has been a key component of her success. Leaving a legacy and being a pioneer: "Anyone can be a pioneer of something if only they let their ideas out, and only if they are willing to execute them." Creativity is a series of habits, actions and activities. It's not some mystical flow state. How NFTs and blockchain tech is impacting the conventional art world (there is no longer a clear boundary between digital and physical art) Taking calculated risks to pursue passion Being willing to shift Finding gold at the intersection of two or more distinct domains There is so much goodness to unpack from Maria.
