究竟是藝術創造價值,還是商業模式帶動藝術產業? 做好生意才是最令人著迷的藝術。 ──安迪.沃荷(Andy Warhol) 《紐約時報》、《金融時報》、《彭博社》最佳藝術 揭露當代藝術市場的大膽、創造力,與對金錢赤裸裸的野心書籍 當代藝術是世界最大的、不受監管的金融市場; 畫商、藝廊、拍賣公司、藝評人、策展人、藝術家等, 他們如何打破職業與財富的藩籬,打造上千億美金的全球市場? 藝術──對畫商、對藝術世界公民而言,一切都是從熱情十足的冒險開始,終其一生皆如此。他們不盡然都是百萬或億萬富翁,買賣也不都是為了轉手獲利。然而,過去二十年富裕的新世代也愛上了當代藝術,若干畫商與藏家仿效頂尖的先進,願意支持沒沒無聞或新秀藝術家試試運氣。畫商買賣的藝術品可能原本就是他們所喜愛的,但選對了,便一本萬利。畫商與藏家組成一支行家大隊,隨身攜帶數百萬美元的交易,成群結隊地遊走於藝博會、拍賣會與閃亮的派對之間。 .藝術成為身分地位的象徵,也成了一種國際通行的貨幣。 如果沒有畫商,沒有這些支持新興藝術家 並引導他們走向成功的品味製造者,這一切都不會發生。 作者麥可.施納雅森(Michael Shnayerson)為《浮華世界》(Vanity Fair)長期撰稿者,他親自訪談全球四大畫商──格里姆徹(Arne Glimcher)、沃斯(Wirth)、卓納(Zwirner)與高古軒(Larry Gagosian)──寫下第一本關於當代藝術市場的紀實歷史。 .不只藝術產業,商業相關人士都應該讀的一本書。 本書敘述的是一批超級畫商 如何創建出今天的當代藝術全球市場。 以唯妙唯俏的文筆刻劃交易細節、人物對話與時代氛圍,讓我們看見當代藝術市場從一九四?年代淺嚐、摸索開始,歷經幾度經濟市場難以預測的大起大落、輕舟闖蕩鬆散的金融法規,創造與移動巨大的財富、範圍伸向全球。揭露了當代藝術市場的大膽、創造力,與對金錢赤裸裸的野心。 瘋狂推薦 林平╱台北市立美術館館長 林羽婕╱師子王藝術平台總經理 袁廣鳴╱媒體藝術家、國立台北藝術大學教授 陸承蔚╱出色創意執行長 黃宇正╱藝視Art.Market主理人 謝佩霓╱藝評人、策展人 (依姓氏筆畫排列)
