En savoir plus sur le livre
By the turn of the twentieth century, Paris emerged as the epicenter of the art world, not only as a hub for art production and trading but also as a focal point for Paris-based dealers who relied on an expanding international network. Many galleries in the city capitalized on foreign collectors' interests, fostering global connections. Artists from around the world, including Cassatt and Picasso, were drawn to the French capital, while the contemporary art market became increasingly international. Dealers strategically engaged with discerning collectors from northern and eastern Europe, the UK, and the USA. The necessity for international trade grew due to the disruptive effects of wars, revolutions, and economic crises that hindered collecting in Europe. This anthology assembles original scholarship that offers fresh insights into dealer records, addressing the emergence and mechanics of the contemporary-centric global art market. It fills a crucial gap in art market studies by exploring how contemporary art, now recognized as historical modernism, gained validation through promotion and sales. Featuring unpublished material, concrete examples, and extensive bibliographical references, it appeals to academics, curators, educators, dealers, collectors, artists, and art enthusiasts. The work celebrates modern art dealers as transnational impresarios and highlights their influence on the history of collecting and art itself.
