The art market has been booming. Museum attendance is surging. More people than ever call themselves artists. Contemporary art has become a mass entertainment, a luxury good, a job description, and, for some, a kind of alternative religion. In a series of beautifully paced narratives, Sarah Thornton investigates the drama of a Christie's auction, the workings in Takashi Murakami's studios, the elite at the Basel Art Fair, the eccentricities of Artforum magazine, the competition behind an important art prize, life in a notorious art-school seminar, and the wonderland of the Venice Biennale. She reveals the new dynamics of creativity, taste, status, money, and the search for meaning in life. A judicious and juicy account of the institutions that have the power to shape art history, based on hundreds of interviews with high-profile players, Thornton's entertaining ethnography will change the way you look at contemporary culture.
知道了很多表面背后的东西,写得很客观也很有可读性。比一些中国评论家写的假大空不知道要专业多少倍,反正是我读到过的少有的好书。对此作者专业严谨又不乏风趣的著书态度表示敬意! 艺术还纯粹吗?
评分台版书为《藝術市場探密 Seven Days in the Art World》,应该装帧和选纸会好些。

评分 评分其实是很好的一本书,介绍了一些艺术品拍卖行业里一些不为外人所知的细节,比如拍卖师、比如如何寻觅艺术品、比如如何吊足有钱人的胃口,等等。艺术品都是烧钱货,你家墙上挂一幅书店买来的印刷书法,和挂一幅大师的真迹,对那面墙来说,没什么区别,区别的意义在于来客怎么看...

评分对于我们这种土著,当然是只认识那么多艺术家中的村上隆...还好重点是社会学田野调查否则很难看清这一个太常被seriousness施暴的艺术圈
评分藝術市場的田野調查 喜歡評論課那一章 挺想去上那樣的課
评分A world that I love so much. But the story is a little bit familiar to me, not many new things.
评分a good art world intro book.
