Artist Trevor Paglen on The Baer Faxt Live from Art Basel 2026
Artist Trevor Paglen joins host Josh Baer at Art Basel Basel to talk about his curatorial vision for Zero 10 (co-curated with Eli Scheinman), Art Basel's initiative reframing what "digital art" actually means, and why the answer might surprise you. They dig into why most art made in the last 20 years is already digital art, what it was like for an artist to wear a curator's hat for the first time, and why Trevor approached the show like making his own work rather than proving a thesis. Plus: AI's inability to fail (and why that matters), the terrifying worldview of Mark Zuckerberg, why artists need a bigger role in the future of the art fair, and what the art world could learn from Jimi Hendrix. This episode of The Baer Faxt Live was recorded on Wednesday, June 17th, 2026. This edition of The Baer Faxt Live is sponsored by Manuela New York by ArtFarm, a neighborhood restaurant and bar in the heart of SoHo, which celebrates the best of New York’s seasonal produce and has art at its heart.

Art Basel CEO Noah Horowitz on The Baer Faxt Live from Art Basel 2026
Art Basel CEO Noah Horowitz joins host Josh Baer on the opening day of Art Basel Basel to talk about how the organization is adapting its platform fair by fair—from the Basel Exclusive initiative (withholding marquee works from preview PDFs to re-energize opening day) to the evolution of Zero 10 and the push to better integrate digital art communities with the institutional art world. They also get into the return of high-value consignments to the fair floor, what the May sales data signals for collector confidence, the artist presence question, and why a "meet the artist" moment on the weekend might be the key to unlocking new collectors. Plus: Knicks in five. This episode of The Baer Faxt Live was recorded on Wednesday, June 17th, 2026.

Dealer David Schrader on The Baer Faxt Live from Art Basel 2026
David Schrader—the S in PDS (Pace Di Donna Schrader Galleries)—joins host Josh Baer on the opening day of Art Basel Basel, his first fair as an exhibitor after decades as a collector and head of private sales at Sotheby's. They cover what surprised him about being on the selling side, the "elephant in the room" of Basel vs. Paris, where the American collectors went, and why the 1–5 million range remains the market's sweet spot. Plus: pricing transparency, the cost reality of running a fair booth, the advisor economy, and why Schrader thinks the market bottomed last September, but has been moving in the right direction ever since. This episode of The Baer Faxt Live was recorded on Wednesday, June 17th, 2026.

Art Advisor Erica Samuels on The Baer Faxt Live from Art Basel 2026
Art advisor Erica Samuels joins Josh Baer on the floor at Art Basel for a candid conversation about how the best advisors actually work — from building client PDFs and curating "mini collections" to navigating conflicts when two clients want the same piece. They dig into the difference between buying with your eyes versus your ears, the debate over storytelling as a sales tool, fee structures (retainer vs. commission vs. combination), and the ethics of working only with sellers who control the picture. Plus: a spirited round of "top five living American artists," starter art, and why there's always more art — but maybe not always more great art.
