Скачать или смотреть 2025 Salon Conversations – Mentorship and Legacy: Building the Next Generation of Gallerists

While mentorship has long been central to artistic practice, its presence within the gallery world, especially at the intersection of art and design, remains less defined. This conversation examines what mentorship really looks like in today’s art and design landscape: does it truly exist in a meaningful way? How are younger gallerists being guided, supported, and prepared to build sustainable careers and businesses?

Bringing together established and emerging gallery leaders, this dialogue will explore how knowledge, networks, and experience are (or aren’t) passed on within the field—and what new structures might be needed to foster a more collaborative, inclusive future. Panelists discuss the challenges of entry into the market, the role of fairs and institutions in supporting new voices, and how mentorship can help preserve both craftsmanship and innovation across generations.
