Dark Side of the Boom scrutinizes the excesses and
extravagances that the 21st-century explosion of the
contemporary art market brought in its wake. The buying of art
as an investment, temptations to forgery and fraud, tax evasion,
money laundering and pressure to produce more and more art all
form part of this story, as do the upheavals in auction houses
and the impact of the enhanced use of financial instruments on
art transactions. Georgina Adam casts her judicious glance over
a section of the art market whose controversies and intrigues
will be of eye-opening interest to both art-world players and
observers.
Characters: 224. Amazon rating: 4 1/2 stars. Genre: Non-Fiction.
