Art world ethnographer, author, and art writer for The Economist Sarah Thornton talks about memorable moments from her research and reporting, involving some big art world names (as guided by the host). She addresses questions about transitioning from art world outsider to insider, how she came to choose the artists she chose, how she structured her books, and how the massively ambitious task of completing her most recent book -- 33 Artists in 3 Acts -- has left her exhausted and still regaining her feet.
