Introducing the ‘What the hell do you actually do?’ podcast

The art world can often feel like an elaborate illusion – part hall of mirrors, part private club, where job roles are ambiguous and much happens behind closed doors. ‘What the hell do you actually do?’ is the new podcast from Plaster that aims to cut through the fog.

In this first episode, hosts Finn Constantine and Milo Astaire sit down with art dealer Damian Delahunty of Delahunty Fine Art to ask the question that, let’s be real, so many have thought but few dare to say out loud: What the hell do you actually do?

Plaster started as a small poster zine to spotlight the artists that Finn and Milo were inspired by. It has, over the past two years, grown into a full-blown publication that’s given access to a world that they never planned to be part of – one they’re now fully immersed in… yet still often feel like outsiders.

Delahunty lifts the veil on the elusive role of the art dealer – what it really means, who they work with, how deals are made, and why trust is the most valuable currency in the art world. If you’ve ever wondered how people navigate this labyrinthine industry, this episode is a must-listen.
