Episode 16: The Intersection (& Democratization) of Art & Wine (Lara Tomaszewska, ArtRow)
Episode Description
In this episode of the TT Wine Explorer Podcast, we delve into the world where art meets wine.
Tania chats with Lara Tomaszewska, an expert fine art consultant, appraiser and founder of ArtRow (an online digital art marketplace).
Together, Tania and Lara explore how art and wine can serve as powerful vehicles to the world of the senses, transporting us to different places and moments - and how this can occur in the hands (and palates) of us everyday people, and outside of the framework of hierarchical connoisseurship.
Lara shares her journey into the art world, discusses her methodology of art appraisal and valuation, and offers insights into the integration of art in wineries, with a special focus on Phantom Creek Estates in British Columbia’s spectacular Southern Okanagan Valley as a specific case study.
The conversation also touches on the democratization of the art market through vehicles such as ArtRow, and how technology like blockchain and AI can bring potential new avenues for transparency, trust and consumer involvement in both the art market and wine industry.
This episode is about how we as everyday consumers, artists, wine producers and business owners can be part of both “place-making” and our own “practice” of experiencing expressions of art and wine.
