Highlighting the creativity of art dealers, their exceptional sensitivity to new art, and the impact they’ve had on the art world, the book challenges the widespread notion that dealers are solely profit-driven. Illustrated throughout, it is perfect for cultural junkies, art students, artists \u0026amp; aspiring \u0026amp; existing art dealers.Organised into six chapters, the book offers fresh insights into the often-overlooked role of art dealers in art history – key players in cultivating the canon of art as we know it. By delving into the past, exploring the profession of art dealing as continually evolving in parallel with the changing positioning of the role of art in society, this publication sheds light on the mechanics of dealing today – from the artist-centric approach to the economically driven and personality-motivated.Including chapters on William Hogarth, Joseph Duveen, Betty Parsons, Robert Fraser, Leo Castelli, Alfred Stieglitz, Virginia Dwan, Kekoo and Khorshed Gandhy, Malick Sidibé, Peggy Guggenheim and many more...\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9781912122981.
