Edward Winkleman Interview

Christopher K. Ho, Happy Birthday from Ed, 2008

Along with Paddy Johnson and Tyler Green, Edward Winkleman is an art blog superstar who posts with breathtaking frequency and insight.

Ed’s a gallerist and I highly recommend listening to this nearly hour-long interview covering a range of topics mostly relating to art and business: how the economic downturn will affect artists and galleries, the motives of the super-wealthy to get involved in the cultural arena, and why an artist should never cold call Larry Gagosian.

It’s a good listen despite the interviewer whose frustratingly naïve and simplistic approach to economics, art, and politics Ed politely tolerates.
