The A-Z of the International Art Market provides a comprehensive and straight-forward guide to terms commonly used in the art world
Tom Flynn is a visiting lecturer in the history of art and the history and professional practices of the international art market at a number of UK and European universities. He is a member of the International Association of Art Critics (AICA) and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts.
Tom Flynn is unusual in being a scholar and academic who is deeply
knowledgeable about the operation of the international art market.
He provides a comprehensive, wide-ranging and historically
well-informed account of the sometimes arcane language which
surrounds the art market, including brief descriptions of the
leading dealers, galleries, art fairs, websites and tools for
understanding the art trade.
*Royal Academy of Arts*
Tom Flynn delves into the sometimes opaque language of the art
market and comes up with a clear explanation of its terms, often
coupled with useful historical perspectives. The introductory
essays are a good overview of the market – both yesterday’s and
today’s.
*Art market editor-at-large, The Art Newspaper; Art market
contributor, The Financial Times*
Tom Flynn is the least servile art historian I know and his writing
on the art market is characteristic of him--thank heavens.
