the plaza of the art fair \u2013 little photography, hardly any video art, and zero NFTs (avoiding the suspicion of AI-generated works). Hardly any text art, a moderate amount of Conceptualism, hardly any feminist, political, or decolonial art; hardly any knitting, knotting, or carpet art; no hard erotica, no empowerment vulvas and penises. The Global South represented, this time around with more quality. Did James Murdoch, the anchor shareholder of the fair\u2019s company, call beforehand?

If I don\u2019t sell anything twice in a row, I might as well wear my best black suit and go straight to the insolvency court. So, what to show? The gallerists sit there and wonder: What are the trends? What do the collectors want? Are so-called red chips still en vogue \u2013 ultra-contemporary, studio-fresh art, with wet paint straight from the easel, made by completely unknown artists with tongue-twisting names? Not right now. There just isn\u2019t that much money in the market. Normally, that raises the quality: \u201cMoney has made more art possible but has not made art better,\u201d as art critic Jerry Saltz once said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 29\">\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p>I do get the impression that galleries are trying to make a little more effort.

At the Affordable Art Fair in Berlin, one gets the distinct impression that galleries were cleverly tailoring their program to an audience with smaller budgets and poor taste.

And what\u2019s also interesting is that, prior to the political correctness movement, galleries relied on extremely pretty, young \u2019gallerinas.\u2019 Sex sells best. Now they are still very pretty but dressed demurely. The mega-gallery Gagosian once even posted two slightly frumpy ladies in weird dresses at Frieze as a cheeky counterpoint. Speaking of which, do people still go to Frieze? Probably better to head directly to Art Basel Paris, set in the beautifully renovated Grand Palais \u2013 both fairs are taking place this October.<\/p>\n<h4>Leonardo DiCaprio<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 29\">\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p>And then, of course, there\u2019s the question for gallery owners: How do I convince a potential buyer? It might work to hover over a visitor who is staring at a work for too long and chat their ear off about what an exciting position it is and that this artist is really taking off just now, with an upcoming exhibition at the Wolfsburg Museum or wherever. Obviously, this artwork is also part of Leonardo DiCaprio\u2019s collection.<\/p>\n<p>But we still have a few pieces going for the old price. When I hear something like that, I immediately lose interest. If everyone wants it, I definitely don\u2019t. Since when was it ever a good idea to follow a film star\u2019s taste? Angelina Jolie collects, too. If I were to buy art according to the advice of gallerists and curators, my collection would end up saying more about them than about me. Anyway, I\u2019m surprised how often I\u2019m told that something is in DiCaprio\u2019s collection \u2013 it must be massive! As a gallerist, you need a lot of experience to know who is a potential buyer and how to approach them. &#8220;If someone pulls up in a Rolls-Royce wearing a double- breasted suit, they\u2019re not going to buy anything,&#8221; says gallerist Michael Haas.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"images","gallery":[{"ID":123385,"id":123385,"title":"ABB25, Unlimited, Public Interactions, General Impressions, MC, PR","filename":"Print_approx_21_x_14_cm_ABB25__Unlimited__Public_Interactions__Ge_HiRes-6.jpg","filesize":948659,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Print_approx_21_x_14_cm_ABB25__Unlimited__Public_Interactions__Ge_HiRes-6.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/article\/ulrich-seibert-curse-and-blessing\/abb25-unlimited-public-interactions-general-impressions-mc-pr\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"abb25-unlimited-public-interactions-general-impressions-mc-pr","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":123351,"date":"2025-10-10 08:47:49","modified":"2025-10-10 08:56:02","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1920,"height":1280,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Print_approx_21_x_14_cm_ABB25__Unlimited__Public_Interactions__Ge_HiRes-6.jpg","thumbnail-width":128,"thumbnail-height":85,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Print_approx_21_x_14_cm_ABB25__Unlimited__Public_Interactions__Ge_HiRes-6.jpg","medium-width":1920,"medium-height":1280,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Print_approx_21_x_14_cm_ABB25__Unlimited__Public_Interactions__Ge_HiRes-6.jpg","medium_large-width":1920,"medium_large-height":1280,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Print_approx_21_x_14_cm_ABB25__Unlimited__Public_Interactions__Ge_HiRes-6.jpg","large-width":1920,"large-height":1280,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Print_approx_21_x_14_cm_ABB25__Unlimited__Public_Interactions__Ge_HiRes-6-1536x1024.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1024,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Print_approx_21_x_14_cm_ABB25__Unlimited__Public_Interactions__Ge_HiRes-6.jpg","2048x2048-width":1920,"2048x2048-height":1280,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Print_approx_21_x_14_cm_ABB25__Unlimited__Public_Interactions__Ge_HiRes-6.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":18,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Print_approx_21_x_14_cm_ABB25__Unlimited__Public_Interactions__Ge_HiRes-6.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":1920,"wpvr_mobile-height":1280}}],"settings":{"fit_width":"6","caption":"ABB25, Unlimited, Public Interactions, General Impressions."}},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_area","text_area":"<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 29\">\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<h4>Onepointfive<\/h4>\n<p>But, of course, all visitors want to be there for First Choice on VIP Day at 11 a.m., and if you only have a ticket for the second VIP Day, it\u2019s a narcissistic injury.
