Buried Lots

Welcome back to Episode 2 of Buried Lots, the podcast where we discuss upcoming auction lots that are underappreciated, overlooked, or undervalued! This week, host Kenny Thompson (aka The Bidding Ninja) is joined by special guest Amy Snyder, a seasoned art advisor who buys extensively at auction for private collectors of 20th and 21st-century material. As we approach the highly-trafficked May sales in New York, Kenny and Amy dig deep to find the hidden gems that other buyers might miss. Whether you are building your contemporary collection or looking to understand the secondary market, this episode provides the crucial analysis and bidding strategies you need to avoid costly mistakes. 

Welcome to Buried Lots, the podcast that unearths the auction lots that are underpriced, overlooked, and underappreciated. Hosts Nico Epstein (art advisor, aka "@nicoknowsart_") and Kenny Thompson (aka "The Bidding Ninja") bring two complementary lenses. Nico's 18 years of art-world expertise and Kenny's sharp, data-driven collector instinct, to surface the buys hiding in plain sight.In this debut episode, the duo digs into six lots across upcoming sales: an Ed Paschke neon-drenched portrait with serious Keith Haring energy, a sleeper Lynn Chadwick print buried in a hard-to-find New York estate auction, a quietly powerful Victor Pasmore constructivist relief at Bonhams, an Olga de Amaral gold-leaf weaving they argue belongs in the evening sale, a magical Carl Priebe figurative work from Wright's Chicago auction, and a Beatriz Milhazes that's punching well below its primary-market weight.Expect honest takes on estimates, provenance, market liquidity, and which works deserve to graduate from the day sale. Not financial advice, just two collectors sharing the good buys before the gavel drops.
