Kurzbeschreibung
One of America's foremost art dealers, Richard Gray, and his wife, art historian Mary L. Gray, have amassed an unparalleled collection of paintings, drawings, and sculpture representing seven hundred years and featuring more than 115 dynamic and important pieces. Showcased in this stunning catalogue are Renaissance- and Baroque-era treasures, 19th-century works by masters such as Delacroix, Degas, and Seurat, and stellar examples by acclaimed 20th-century artists including Picasso, Matisse, and Miro. Suzanne Folds McCullagh presents a brief introduction to the collection, followed by Lawrence Weschler's interview with Richard and Mary L. Gray and entries by more than 60 experts on the various pieces of art. French drawings scholar Francois Borne offers an appreciation of the keen visual sensibilities the couple has brought to the formation of their outstanding collection.

The dealer as collector
23. November 2010
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Anyone familiar with the art scene in Chicago has heard of the venerable Richard Gray gallery, the most respected modern and contemporary art gallery in the windy city. Over a period of 50 years Richard Gray, in parallel with his activities as a dealer, has amassed a fantastic art collection, mainly works on paper, from the XVth (a wonderful Portrait of an old Man, thought to be by Bonsignori that graces the cover of this book) to the XXth century (marvelous drawings and watercolors by Picasso, Léger, Miro, De Kooning, Jim Dine, etc...). The book, apart from being a fascinating account of a dealer's and collector's lifelong quest for masterpieces and of the art market in the US during the second part of the XXth century, is a wonderful analysis of every single work, often illustrated full-page, with a complete provenance history in the checklist at the end. It is the catalogue for an exhibition at the Art Institute in Chicago that will be running through january 2011 and it is a great document on what art collecting at the highest level means.
