KCRW cont'd: When reviews and business mix

Continuing this morning's post:

Another LA dealer has told me that KCRW art critic Edward Goldman tried to leverage an on-air review into a sale to a client. As with this morning's post, the dealer insisted on anonymity and for the same reasons.

According to this dealer, Goldman reviewed a group show on KCRW but strangely spent the review substantially discussing just one piece. The dealer later discovered Goldman trying to sell that artwork to a client. (Goldman did not report this on air.)

As I mentioned in my first post, Goldman did not respond to multiple emails and KCRW general manager Ruth Seymour refused to talk with me.
