Daniel Cassady of ARTnews on the Armory Show and the Market’s Fall Outlook

In this week’s episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, host Adam Green speaks with Daniel Cassady, art business reporter for ARTnews, about the mood at the Armory Show and what it signals for the fall season. They discuss whether the atmosphere felt more upbeat than the recent headlines of gallery closures, why it’s important to understand the nuances behind those closures, and how this year’s fair offered more thoughtful conversations between collectors and galleries rather than the frenzied sales of past editions. Daniel also shares insight into the types of works drawing the strongest demand, which are proving harder to place, and whether this edition shifted perceptions of the Armory’s polarizing reputation, ultimately offering a snapshot of where the market stands heading into the busy months of auctions and fairs.
