When I'm Asked "Where Next? . . .

Having just written a 50 year history of the ever-migrating art districts of New York City, it's understandable that I am regularly asked where I think the next one will be – and whether it will even be in New York.

Over the course of the 150 some interviews that I did for Art on the Block, the final question I always put to interviewees – to dealers, non-profit directors, artists – was "What do you think? Where else might the art world go?" Responses ranged from the Upper East Side to back to SoHo, Dubai to back to Paris. This week art info.com kicked off a three part series looking at Los Angeles as a well-chewed-over possibility

Their initial discussion is well balanced I think.
