David Zwirner Interview

[CAP]

Zwirn gives his views on the role of art fairs and the problems for smaller galleries. Interestingly, he says he won't open any more branches - London and New York are enough. He sees London as drawing the Asian/Middle East market (so no need to open branches there), New York serving the Americas. I wouldn't know, but it does help explain how the London art market has remained relatively buoyant while the rest of the economy sinks.

There's also more on the problems of smaller galleries by NYC gallerist Edward Winkleman.com.
