Be careful where you get your art news

Mainstream media does a terrible job of covering art and the art market.
Here is a list of journalists and sites I recommend to stay on top of the art world (I'll assume you can find the New York Times and Wall Street Journal on your own):

Great video and warning! Legacy media are as trustworthy on art topics as they are on virtually any other topic. I tossed my television decades ago and refuse to have one in my house.

[@christopherwestpresents]

You are a wise one!

[@star_wars_miniatures]

Another fantastic and very useful video once again! 😍

[@christopherwestpresents]

Always appreciated Dan. Thank you!

[@star_wars_miniatures]

@@christopherwestpresents I wondered if you could do a video on Christie’s and Sotheby’s, and maybe their history or why certain clients choose which auction house? Also maybe a video on the top 10 most expensive paintings sold at auction. Would love to hear your opinions on them ☺️

[@kickingronja1]

Your channel is currently my favourite KZbin channel - always excited for the next video to come up! 🫶

[@christopherwestpresents]

That is sooooo nice of you to say. Thank you and I’ll keep trying!

Invaluable recommendations, thank you. I might also add Great Art Explained for in-depth art history lessons.

[@christopherwestpresents]

Thanks so much for the nice comment!

[@philcourtney7831]

My obsession with making art naturally spills over into finding out what else is going on. I really appreciate you putting this video together.

[@christopherwestpresents]

I’m so glad you got something out of it. And thanks so much for the comment!

@@christopherwestpresents I feel so lucky to live right now. There is so much amazing art being made. Although I paint realistically, I love all kinds of art. Granted, there's still plenty of crap being made, but that's always been the case.

[@christopherwestpresents]

@@philcourtney7831 so true. But the more you look, the easier it is to wade through the crappy stuff!

[@philcourtney7831]

@@christopherwestpresents A different topic. Although I'm not at well none artist. The Internet kind of blew up when I posted to self portrait oil paintings side by side. I did one when I was 21 and one when I was 71. 50 years apart. Huge arguments broke out online about whether one style is better than the other the later style. The older self portrait is very realistic some said hyper realistic. Don't care for that term, but... Also arguments started whether the one painting was actually a photograph or made by AI. AI is a new one this year. As of now I have over 150,000 likes and over 2000 comments on the two side-by-side self portraits. Even Jerry Saltz liked three of myself portraits on my Instagram. In the end, I don't think this will do much of anything for my art career, but it was crazy. @philcourtneyartwork .

@@philcourtney7831 let’s chat! Just followed you on IG.

[@TimothyRedburn]

Great video. I subscribed to a few of the KZbinrs and podcasts you recommended. One that you didn't mention that I like is great art explained. His videos are nice long form information about famous artists and their work.

[@christopherwestpresents]

You’re totally right! I’ve watched a ton of those videos but for some reason had never subscribed. I am now!

[@Nashvillain10SE]

One of my favorites is a very entertaining and humorous channel called Art Deco.

[@christopherwestpresents]

@@Nashvillain10SE you’re totally right. Love Art Deco channel!

[@JayBenedictBrown]

Not really news, but Tateshots by the Tate Gallery has some nice historical pieces covering big names of the last 20 years. And…No commercials!

[@christopherwestpresents]

@@JayBenedictBrown I totally forgot about that one. Thanks!

[@mmmbiscuits1211]

Do an episode about the Cartier Crash. History, design, sales, impact....ETC.

[@christopherwestpresents]

I’m a total watch geek and was at this very moment wondering what my audience would think if I did a watch video!

[@mmmbiscuits1211]

@@christopherwestpresents Watches are art. Buildings are art. cars are art. just find a design tie in with each item. You can do 100s of watch vids.

[@arthistorystorytime]

Thanks for the mention! But please don't play my DJ vids, I'm a DJ noob haha! 😅😅

[@christopherwestpresents]

Haha. You’re better than I ever was!

Really useful - thanks.
