I read two books last week about the behind the scenes workings of the art world. I like your work: art and etiquette published by Paper Monument and Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Gallerists But Were Afraid To Ask by Andrea Bellini published by my favourite imprint of the moment jrp ringier. Both were very interesting, accessible and well written but at the same time I wondered if any other medium in the world could make the inner workings of what they do into something deep and meaningful? Would the music industry write books about how to behave or how their labels have reinvented the landscape of music production? I dont think so...
