Description
"This is a must-read for anyone remotely interested (or deeply entrenched) in these fascinating worlds." Surface
In this little gem of a book Patrick Parrish, of the eponymous Patrick Parrish Gallery in New York, offers advice, stories, gossip, and pointers on how to go about acquiring top-quality art and design from flea markets all the way up to the finest auction houses in the world. With over 25 years of hard-won experience in the trenches as a picker, collector, and dealer he tells you what to do, what not to do, and how to negotiate the often-confusing labyrinths that international galleries, auction houses, and even flea markets can present.
Hailed by The New York Times as one of the top dealers in the world for cutting-edge contemporary design, Parrish holds nothing back, providing a unique outlook into what is sometimes, for good reason, a secretive and cliquish world. Often what you don t do or say is more important than what you do, and Parrish has an insider s perspective on what dealers and auction house experts want to see and hear from their prospective clients.
