This week: Patrica, Brian, and Duncan chat with one-of-a-kind private art dealer and fountain of knowledge Steven Leiber. Steven Leiber is most commonly known for operating Steven Leiber's Basement which specializes in the sale of contemporary art and contemporary art documentation: artist's books, artist's ephemera, multiples, works on paper and reference materials. The conversation delves in to the history of Steven's artist ephemera collections and the unique catalogs his endeavors produce. This episode is part of the series recorded this fall at Baer Ridgeway Exhibitions.

This week: Amanda and Tom go to the Rachel Uffner Gallery to talk with Roger White about his self titled show at the gallery which ran October 29th-December 13th. Roger talks about the show and painting as well as being an artist/journalist as the Vermont based artist is also a frequent contributor to the Brooklyn Rail as well as one of the founders of Paper Monument.

This week: Tom, Amanda, and Duncan talk to super collector Hubert Neumann. He's candid, he doesn't mince words and he knows a ton of stuff, don't miss it.

Also, Richard thinks that the Smithsonian and National Portrait Gallery are striving to redefine "spineless cowards" in their role in the museum word. Great job guys, I look forward to seeing what a Fox News curated museum looks like!
