ARTS - In the Gallery w/Camille Hunt

Guest: Camille Hunt, co-owner of Hunt Kastner Gallery

*To see some images along with the talk, check out the video version on our YouTube channel.*

There's a lot of art in Prague, but what is it, exactly, that galleries do for contemporary artists? One of the owners of Hunt Kastner Gallery in Žižkov talks about the multiple roles of the gallerist, what exactly a collector is collecting, art fairs and more about modern art here in the Czech capital. Whether you're in the art world or just art world curious, there's a lot of interesting stuff in this conversation.
