The Art Angle

The Round-Up: L.A.'s Art Scene Rallies, an Art Fraudster Speaks, a Fugly 'Van Gogh'

38 min • 27 februari 2025

It’s the end of February 2025, and we are back for our Roundup podcast, talking about some of the news of the month.

Today, we’re going to talk about:

—the Frieze week of art fairs in L.A., which went ahead in the wake of the horrible fires that have mauled the city

—some updates on the disgraced art adviser Lisa Schiff, who is back in the news

—and the debate over whether a painting purchased for $50 at a Minnesota garage sale is actually a Vincent Van Gogh painting worth millions. We’ll give our opinions

At the end, I'll also say a few words about the artist and art critic Walter Robinson, who passed away this month.

Our art critic, Ben Davis opines with Kate Brown, Artnet’s senior editor and co-host of this Art Angle, calling from Berlin, and Annie Armstrong, Artnet’s Wet Paint columnist, in New York.
