Have you ever wondered how the fine art market functions, how air fairs and auctions, collectors and dealers, navigate through a $64 billion industry of art work sales? In this episode, private dealer Warren Winegar, former head of client services at Sotheby’s, discusses this fascinating world. He describes the impact of the pandemic and what it is like to travel the world in search of art for clients. Then, the discussion shifts to psychology and the consequences of collecting. What motivates people to collect? How do the visual images with which we surround ourselves affect our sense of self, and in the case of Latter-day Saints, what do the objects we have in our homes have to say about us? 

With music by Francisco Estevez, Luisiadas II, for toy piano.
