#77 [english]: Corona-Isolation special with Yasha Young (New York / Berlin)
Yasha Young has been in the art business for a long time, she had her own gallery Strychnin in three major cities, she was the director of the Bloom Art Fair in Cologne, she was in charge for the creation and Realisation of the Urban Nation Museum in Berlin until last year and is working on several huge projects since. Including another museum. A true global citizen she was in her apartment in New York when the pandemic started and has made her way to Berlin only recently, where I spoke with her, from a distance of roughly 300 Kilometers, of course. With this series of special editions of heliumTALK I am trying to find out how the art community around the world is doing, so I am checking in with artists, gallerists, collectors, journalists and so on to hear how they are dealing with being locked down and what their ideas are to make the best of this.
