Published in October 2006, Owning Art: The Contemporary Art Collector's Handbook is the definitive insider's guide to the mysterious world of contemporary art collecting.
Published with the support of the Arts Council and written by leading art world personalities Louisa Buck and Judith Greer, this groundbreaking book provides the low-down on collecting, structuring, insuring and displaying a collection and the financial implications of buying art.
Owning Art is a beautifully designed and clearly structured collector's bible. It features in-depth interviews with leading art collectors, curators, museum directors, market players and the artists themselves, as well as the indispensable practical advice of the authors.
Described as ‘essential reading' on its publication by The Art Newspaper, Owning Art went to a second print run after only four months in the bookshops and is now in its third edition.
