Summary

How is the price of a work of art determined? Why do some pieces skyrocket while others fall flat? This book tackles the enigmatic art market, offering a clear and engaging explanation of the forces that affect the value of art.

The value of art today is more relative than ever. All elements of a sale -- identity of the buyer and seller, where the art is sold, and the social potential -- are explored in The Worth of Art: Pricing the Priceless. Illustrations of record-breaking sales, and listings of new important galleries and auction houses, make this book fundamental for anyone who seeks to understand today's art market.
