The Overview delivers strategic intelligence for art world professionals navigating the future of culture. Every week, I skip the art news headlines and instead dive deep into the business models, technologies, values, and systems transforming how art is made, sold, and experienced in the 21st Century.
Why I'm Covering Digital Transformation in the Art World
The $57B art market is undergoing its biggest transformation in decades. But I don't see media outlets documenting and putting into context how the art world is changing. There is more room for coverage focused on future-oriented analysis— the infrastructure, technology, and business models reshaping the entire art ecosystem. That's the gap this online publication and newsletter fills.
What's Actually Changing
The art world is transforming: Galleries are adopting SaaS infrastructure and hybrid business models, blockchain is promising to solve provenance and authentication problems. AI is influencing both the creation of art and the infrastructure of cultural institutions and the market.
A new generation of collectors want different models of patronage and museums are rethinking engagement for digital-first audiences. These shifts are happening now. I want to cover them from the front lines through interviews, case studies, and trend analysis — to deliver practical insights and help you make smarter and more informed decisions.
Who This Is For
This curatorial platform and newsletter is for:
- Gallery professionals navigating digital transformation
- Museum directors and cultural professionals who want to future-proof their institutions
- Artists experimenting with emerging technologies
- Collectors exploring new models of patronage and ownership
- Art-tech founders building the infrastructure
- Anyone curious about where art + technology + culture intersect
Have a topic idea, feedback or tip? I'd love to hear from you.
What I'll Cover
Three core areas:
1. Market Systems
How the business of art is evolving (platforms, data, new collecting models)
2. Institutional Innovation
How museums, fairs, and galleries adapt to digital realities
3. Art × Tech × Culture
The intersection of creativity and technology, and the artists shaping it
Why Me
I'm a culture journalist and digital copywriter with more than 10 years of experience working in the creative industry for tech companies, culture magazines, lifestyle brands and creative agencies.
Now I'm dedicating my reporting to this space because it's at a genuine inflection point — and the stories being told don't match the reality I'm seeing. This newsletter is my research, synthesized and shared weekly.
