Summary:

This is the second in the Summit publication series, disseminating key insights of the 2018 Summit and extending a global dialogue on an important social issue: art in the digital age. The multidisciplinary perspectives come together through the inspirational book design by Irma Boom. Acting as a cultural incubator for innovative ideas and change, the Verbier Art Summit is an international platform erected to optimise the role of art in a global society. Their mission is to connect thought leaders to key figures in the art world and thus position the Summit as a catalyst for innovation and change. Their vision is to create an influential platform in a non-transactional context for artists, curators, museum directors, private and corporate collectors, art historians/critics, gallerists and art consultants to generate new insights and ideas.
