Sotheby's Institute conference
September 6 2011
Ping into my inbox comes an email flyer from Sotheby's Institute:
Sotheby's Institute of Art is pleased to invite you to a one-day conference entitled Exploring Risk and Uncertainty: Metaphors from the Art World, taking place on Friday 23 September 2011: 9:00 am – 5:00 pm followed by a drinks reception.
In association with Cambridge University’s Centre for Risk Studies at the Judge Business School, this research-based conference will investigate the nature of risk and uncertainty using metaphors from the art market with an aim to draw novel inferences and develop insights relevant to both the art world and other fields.
I've no idea what any of this actually means, but if you want to go, details here.
