Identity Crisis
All things are possible. In the real world as we know, our society has many evils that do in fact exist. Although we know them to be true, we still find them hard to comprehend. For it is difficult for those of us with any substance of humanity to fathom such evils existing in real life, no matter how often tales of unbelievable horrors headline our newspapers or television sets. Just as you sit reading at this very moment; you or I could be next. All things are possible. Twins, Doreen and Darlene Ward enter a nightmare of unspeakable terror. When Dr. Jameson, professor of psychology at Middleton University is found murdered, Darlene Ward is the prime suspect. That is until Doreen Ward shows up throwing the whole proceedings into question. Which twin murdered Dr. Jameson? That is the question on Dr. Thornway and Chief Clarkson's minds. Neither of these two men ever imagined the horror that awaits them.
Art Market Research
This book is for art market researchers at all levels. A brief overview of the global art market and its major stakeholders precedes an analysis of the various sales venues (auction, commercial gallery, etc.). Library research skills are reviewed, and advanced methods are explored in a chapter devoted to basic market research. Because the monetary value of artwork cannot be established without reference to the aesthetic qualities and art historical significance of our subject works, two substantial chapters detail the processes involved in researching and documenting the fine and decorative arts, respectively, and provide annotated bibliographies. Methods for assigning values for art objects are explored, and sources of price data, both in print and online, are identified and described in detail. In recent years, art historical scholarship increasingly has addressed issues related to the history of art and its markets: a chapter on resources for the historian of the art market offers a wide range of sources. Finally, provenance and art law are discussed, with particular reference to their relevance to dealers, collectors, artists and other art market stakeholders.
