Appraisers often rely on private sales data from dealers, highlighting the crucial role art dealers play in the art market. 🎨🌍 Dive into the pivotal role of art dealers in shaping the transatlantic art market from the late 19th to early 20th centuries! In an often overlooked perspective of the art market's history this new publication, "Money in the Air: Art Dealers and the Making of a Transatlantic Market, 1880–1930," shows how these figures not only influenced art collections but also significantly impacted the foundations of major American art museums.

Congrats to editors Gail Feigenbaum, Sandra van Ginhoven, and Edward Sterrett, on the publication of “Money in the Air: Art Dealers and the Making of a Transatlantic Market, 1880–1930”.
This volume explores the often-overlooked role of art dealers in creating a transatlantic art market in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It offers new perspectives on the development of art collections that formed the core of American art museums, such as the National Gallery of Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Frick Collection.

AN AMAZING VIDEO ABOUT ART CONSERVATION, the career that I chose in the 1980s for the reasons shown and explained in the video (never have I regretted that choice).
It illustrates why conservators can be valuable resources in studies of age, attribution, and authenticity, because they spend years studying the chemistry, degradation, and preservation of cultural property - and - years looking very closely at objects.
But - and this is important - do not expect most conservators to say whether an object is authentic or inauthentic, misattributed or correctly attributed, old or period, because codes of ethics and guidelines for practice for conservators require a sound basis for such opinions (not mere speculation), and offering such opinions can open them to liability.
Rather, listen closely for what conservators say or don’t say about authenticity, attribution, and age; for example, “wouldn’t it be interesting to have this object examined in a laboratory” or “You might ask [so and so] to look at this.”
That might be what they are able to say, that you should hear.
Hope this helps.
So much work goes into an exhibition before we open our doors.
For months, our conservators, curators, and beyond have been busy preparing works for our big fall exhibition “Georgia O’Keeffe and Henry Moore," which features more than 150 works and recreations of each artist's studio. Organized by The San Diego Museum of Art, the exhibition is an unprecedented collaboration with the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum and the Henry Moore Foundation.
