DIEM: Talks Design symposium on November 13, 2015, curated by Mallery Roberts Morgan with KCRW’s Frances Anderton.

New York, Paris, London, LA, Berlin, Hong Kong… in major capitals the big story is art. Why? Is it pure commerce, a new form of spirituality or a branch of interior design? And how much of today’s “art” is any good? How much can the market bear? Panelists will ruminate on what art means to society today.

Panelists: CAROLINA MIRANDA, Los Angeles Times staff writer; STEFAN SIMCHOWITZ, CEO at Simcor, art collector, curator and advisor; STEPHEN GOLDBERG, attorney, specializing in art law.
