The Round-Up: Looted Art Exposed in House Listing, Jeff Koons Back With His Ex, and $13M For 'Conan' Cover Art
It’s September, and the art world is back to business. In this month’s episode of the Art Angle Round-Up, we’re diving into the stories making headlines from Buenos Aires to New York—and even into the fantastical worlds of Frank Frazetta.
We start with a remarkable development out of Argentina, where a couple has been charged with concealing looted art. Then, we turn to the gallery scene, where art superstar Jeff Koons is once again on the move, returning to Gagosian after ditching Pace. And finally, we celebrate a record-breaking sale in the fantasy art market: Frazetta’s iconic Conan the Barbarian painting Man Ape fetched $13.5 million, more than doubling his previous auction record.
Joining Kate Brown to unpack these stories is co-host Ben Davis, along with returning art market expert Eileen Kinsella.
