  • Meg Molloy: Who Gets to Work in the Art World? (Video)

    Founder and Communications Professional Meg Molloy joins brave podcast host Lydia Higton to talk about her route from Margate into the art world and the Working Arts Club, the network she started for people from working class backgrounds in the arts.


    From the shop at Turner Contemporary to Dulwich Picture Gallery, Studio Voltaire and the commercial galleries of Mayfair, Molloy explains how one call out on Instagram and LinkedIn drew hundreds of responses. She and Higton cover why so many people mask their accents at work, what London costs anyone trying to get in, why salary transparency matters, why wall texts shut people out, and why her advice to her younger self is to talk to as many people as you can.

She and Higton cover why paper is a medium and not just a sketch, why artists should know how to read a contract, and why trust in the art world is built in steps.

  • Matt Carey-Williams: The Art World Veteran Backing Emerging Artists (Video)

    From Sotheby's, Gagosian and White Cube to Deputy Chairman at Phillips and Head of Sales at Victoria Miro, Carey-Williams explains why he left the blue chip world for a small space with large ambition. He and Higton cover why his programme runs in episodes and scenes, why he writes his own 3,000 word exhibition texts, what an emerging artist should ask a gallerist, the 50/50 relationship between artist and dealer, and why trust is built by actually doing what you said you would do.
