Gallerist, Susanne Albrecht, Galerie Albrecht (Berlin, Germany)

During our conversation in her Berlin gallery, we covered: The first art market in Cologne, Germany (Art in a market), Artsy, The intention of art, The buying of art is like dating, You want to meet a piece of art before buying it, like dating, The prestige of buying art, Money is a vampire, The importance of art fairs, Consistency in an artist's career, the difficult idea of following trends, the desire to be a trendsetter rather than a trend follower, The fact that art expresses much the same thing throughout history, the difference is what technology is used to express the concept, Being humble, if there is there a need to buy more art, That the majority of the art market is based on investment rather than love for the artwork, Exclusivity sells artwork (exclusive clients, exclusive galleries and exclusive artists), Anti-establishment artists becoming the establishment, Something subtle is not seen in the contemporary art market, and the importance of the 'story of' the artwork.
