The Slow Death of the Contemporary Art Gallery
The contemporary art gallery as we know it is dying. In cities like New York and Los Angeles, dedicated spaces that once buzzed with foot traffic and formal openings are now struggling with rising rents and changing expectations. The old model, where a gallery does everything for its artists, feels like it's falling apart. Big gallery chains, the ones built on endless art fairs, multiple cities and huge rosters of artists, are losing their grip. Last month, Tim Blum announced he would close his Blum & Poe galleries in L.A. and Tokyo and even stop plans for a new one in Tribeca. He was blunt about the reason: 'This is not about the market. This is about the system,'he told ARTnews, pointing out that collectors have more power than ever to negotiate. His decision echoes a wider feeling across the industry with many giving up on the idea of building giant gallery empires. You can see this shift happening at major events. The latestArt Baselconfirmed that galleries are showing more mid-priced work, not just the massive, ultra-expensive pieces they once counted on. A recentreport from Art Basel and UBSshowed that while the overall art market shrank last year, the number of actual sales went up. It's a clear signal that the business is no longer just about a small group of big spenders, it's now about reaching a wider audience at lower price points. 'The old model was built on scarcity and prestige. The new one runs on access and attention.' A significant force behind this change is the shifting demand for different types of art. The once-dominant 'blue-chip' artists, masters whose work commanded staggering prices, are no longer the only game in town. Collectors are increasingly turning their attention to 'red-chip' artists, a new class of talents whose value is built on viral hype and cultural relevance rather than institutional endorsement. These artists are attractive for two main reasons: their work is often more accessible and affordable, and it brings fresh, diverse cultural perspectives that feel relevant and exciting to a global audience. This hunger for new voices and unconventional methods is reshaping the market. A key example isOlaolu Slawn, a London-based artist who sold out his solo show,I present to you, Slawn, at the Saatchi Yates gallery in 2024 by creating and selling 1,000 individual, more accessible pieces, an approach that challenges the fine art world's focus on scarcity and prestige. A separate but related trend sees celebrities entering the art market with their own work, often commanding high prices based on their fame. Actor Adrien Brody is a notable example. His art, which he described is about celebrating the little nuances in life has sold for significant amounts, as per a convo withInterview Magazine. For instance, a painting he created of Marilyn Monroe was sold at a Cannes gala auction for $425,000 USD, illustrating how star power can directly translate into commercial value. However, his work has drawn sharp criticism from the industry, with critics often labeling it as kitschy and derivative. One critic writing forARTnewsdescribed his work as having a 'faux naïve aesthetic' and 'mediocre production value,' while others have accused him of cheaply appropriating the styles of Jean-Michel Basquiat and Andy Warhol. As the old guard shrinks, smaller galleries are finding new ways to thrive. In New York,Tiwa Galleryshows self-taught artists in a relaxed space, rejecting flashy Landddcombines Latin American crafts with immersive events. In L.A.,Marta galleryblends art and design right into everyday life. These new spaces care more about quiet, genuine connection than putting on a spectacle. Retail is also becoming a new kind of gallery. Stores like South Korea's Gentle Monster and London's Dover Street Market are blurring the lines between art and commerce, transforming shopping into an immersive cultural experience. Gentle Monster's stores are famous for their fantastical, ever-changing installations, from surreal kinetic sculptures to robotic figures that draw in visitors who are just as interested in the art as they are in the eyewear. Dover Street Market, founded by Comme des Garçons's Rei Kawakubo, is a 'beautiful chaos' where each brand and artist is given a dedicated space to create a unique installation, turning the store into a constantly evolving exhibition. By blending high-end retail with cutting-edge art and design these spaces offer a new kind of public access to creativity, making the gallery experience a part of a commercial transaction rather than a separate cultural outing. 'If your space is fueled by DJs and cocktails, maybe it isn't really a gallery anymore.' It's clear that going to a gallery is no longer the only way to see or buy art. Today, buyers can just scroll on their phones and purchase work directly from studios or social media. This instant access has replaced the slow dance of white-cube shows and champagne previews. Some galleries are trying to keep up, creating online art drops and hosting pop-ups in different retail spaces. But others are pushing back, as one veteran gallerist puts it: if your space is fueled by DJs and cocktails, maybe it isn't really a gallery anymore. Art isn't disappearing. It's just moving, becoming more accessible and less tied to one physical location. The old model was built on scarcity and prestige. The new one runs on access and attention. The question isn't whether galleries will survive, but which ones can change fast enough to matter.

TikTok's new guidelines add subtle changes for LIVE creators, AI content, and more
TikTok is preparing an update to its Community Guidelines, which dictate the rules for participating on the social video platform as well as what standards the company uses to determine the videos that make it onto its For You feed. While the update largely rewrites the original text for simplicity's sake, there are a few items that jump out in the new revision — notably how TikTok prioritizes its marketplace, how deeply it personalizes the experience per user, and a small change to the type of AI-generated content that's permitted. Today, social media companies have to comply with a range of regulations globally, like the U.K.'s Online Safety Act (OSA), the EU's Digital Services Act (DSA), and the U.S.'s TAKE IT DOWN Act, which in part has led to policy revisions on some platforms, as with yesterday's update to Bluesky. TikTok's changes, which go live on September 13, 2025, are not as substantial, as it appears the company was often just rewriting text for clarity. However, one section that saw several additions in the updated guidelines covers the rules for TikTok LIVE creators. The company warns creators they're responsible for anything that happens on their live session, even if it involves third-party tools, like real-time translation or voice-to-text tools to read out viewers' comments. TikTok advises creators to monitor those tools to make sure they're not violating the rules through these third-party services. Another notable addition to this section introduces new guidelines for commercial content. TikTok stresses that commercial content must be disclosed. It also directly states that it will reduce the visibility of content that directs users to 'purchase products off-platform in markets where TikTok Shop is available.' The company also says it's customizing users' search results. While the prior version of the guidelines said TikTok provided 'search suggestions' that were relevant to the user, the new guidelines say both 'search results and recommendations may look different for everyone.' The guidelines explain that TikTok uses information like your past searches and what you've watched to make the search results more relevant. The updated rules reveal that comments are personalized, too. TikTok says comments are being sorted based on signals like past replies, likes, and reports. Again, this means the comment section will look different from user to user. The section on AI content has not changed dramatically, though the language here has become less verbose in parts when describing what sort of deepfake content is not allowed. TikTok previously banned content that 'shares or shows fake authoritative sources or crisis events, or falsely shows public figures in certain contexts,' it said. 'This includes being bullied, making an endorsement, or being endorsed.' That's now been replaced with language that says TikTok doesn't allow content 'that's misleading about matters of public importance or harmful to individuals.' It's interesting to note the language referencing AI endorsements was removed. (Perhaps TikTok is paving the way for celebrity-approved, AI-generated endorsements?) In some cases, the language in the guidelines has been simplified, such as in the case of the For You feed (FYF) Eligibility Standards section, which no longer has a long list of what's considered FYF ineligible content. Instead, details about the ineligible content are spread throughout the many different sections of the updated Community Guidelines, which makes it less helpful to reference since it's no longer all in one place. It's also worth noting that TikTok changed the language explaining the reason why it engages in content moderation. Before, the company said the process kept the platform 'safe, trustworthy, and vibrant.' Now it describes content moderation as helping TikTok be a 'safe, fun, and creative place for everyone.' It seems 'trustworthy' got the ax. Uh-oh. Sign in to access your portfolio

DEALISM Launches World's First AI Agent Designed to Empower Individual Sales Professionals for WhatsApp Business
By GlobeNewswire Published on August 15, 2025, 23:00 IST Singapore, Aug. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DEALISM PTE. LTD. announced the launch of DEALISM, the world's first AI agent purpose-built to transform the daily workflow of individual salespeople for WhatsApp business. Powered by advanced large language model(LLM), deep learning, reasoning model, reinforce learning(RL) and multi-agent, DEALISM acts as a 24/7 intelligent sales partner—handling complex, proactive, multi-turn customer conversations, automating repetitive tasks, and continuously self-learning from each interaction to deliver better outcomes. A Solution Born from Experience DEALISM's vision comes from the firsthand experience of its founder, Leo Huan. As the former president of China's first publicly listed SaaS company, Leo has left behind a platform with over $15 billion in GMV to build something new: an AI-driven agent focused on empowering individual sales professionals. Before founding his new venture, Leo was an investor at Hillhouse Capital, one of China's top investment firms. In 2018, he joined the pioneering SaaS firm as COO and Co-President, where he managed a sales team of over 3,000 people, covering both direct sales and distributor channels. Despite the company's scale, Leo saw first-hand the inefficiencies—lengthy sales onboarding, underperforming CRM systems, and knowledge that was difficult to transfer and scale. Leo noticed that while many companies were starting to use AI to improve their sales processes, these changes were mostly limited to making existing workflows more efficient—like an engine running in place, rather than moving forward. 'I don't want to create just another system that documents sales steps. I want AI to truly learn and apply sales experience, to understand brands and products, and to improve through real conversations. Just like what we are doing for WhatsApp business,' Leo says. 'If we succeed, sales will no longer rely on the traditional 'master-apprentice' model, where experience and skills are shared only by word of mouth. Instead, sales knowledge can be updated, shared, and adapted automatically—just like a real person.' Disclaimer: The above press release comes to you under an arrangement with GlobeNewswire. Business Upturn takes no editorial responsibility for the same. Ahmedabad Plane Crash GlobeNewswire provides press release distribution services globally, with substantial operations in North America and Europe.
