Selling Contemporary Art: How to Navigate the Evolving Market
Edward Winkleman
(USA: Allworth Press, @allworthpress, 2017)

A sophisticated examination of today’s contemporary art market from an art dealer’s point of view, this new book focuses on recent changes in the quickly evolving market. With an emphasis on how the market responded to the global recession that began in 2008, gallery owner Edward Winkleman moves from an examination of the factors beyond the individual dealer’s command to those that the dealer can control.
