The Critics in Venice: Kimberly Drew and Andrew Durbin

For the Venice Biennale Edition of CHANEL’s flagship arts and culture podcast, Andrew Durbin, author and Editor-in-Chief of Frieze magazine, connects with Kimberly Drew, author, critic and Curatorial Director at Pace Gallery. Kimberly has developed a huge online following for the way she uses emerging platforms to communicate about art. And, as the editor of Frieze, Andrew is one of the most influential writers on art in the world. Together, they discuss the evolution of art in the digital age and explore how the Venice Biennale came to be the centrepiece of the global art community.
