- New online competition
- Models of post-brick-and-mortar art dealing
- Art dealers as art fair organizers
- Collaboration in a new era
Review Quotes
"Edward Winkleman will rightfully make you love and admire people you think you should hate: art dealers, the hell they go through trying to make ends meet, keeping artists happy, talking to critics, collectors, curators, electricians, and everyone else who wants a piece of the art action, all while operating businesses that are free to the public. I love art dealers and love that Winkleman will make you see how hard they work. Amen!" --Jerry Saltz, senior art critic, New York magazine
"Edward Winkleman delivers an absorbing, well-researched, and much-needed book on the gallery world of the last seven years. He provides in-depth analysis based on research along with his own astute observations making this book a must-read for those contemplating a start-up as much as for those who have spent their lives in the gallery business." --Dorsey Waxter, partner, Van Doren Waxter Gallery, New York
