The new look on the history of art and its blind spots, the far-reaching digitization of structures and content, the changing role of museums and art criticism, new forces from influencers to NFTs: Hardly any market system has evolved as profoundly in the last decade as the distribution of art. With 25 years of experience in the art industry, Dirk Boll acts as a continuous chronicler and seasonal commentator of these pervasive developments. His handbook Art and its Market is a reliable source of in-depth knowledge about the inner workings of global art market systems. How do auctions, the network of galleries, and fairs work? How are prices being made, and how do trends both in the production of art as well as its collection emerge? What is more, this edition provides comprehensive information on the practical issues of art acquisition: What are the customs and pitfalls, the economic interdependencies between the artists, buyers and other market players, and the legal regulations governing the trade with art?

A thrilling, eye-popping look at true crime in the billion-dollar art world. The art world is one of the most secretive of global businesses, and the list of its crimes runs long and deep. Today, with prices in the hundreds of millions for individual artworks, and billionaires' collections among the most conspicuous and liquid of their assets, crime is more rampant than ever in this largely unregulated universe. Increased prices and globalization have introduced new levels of fraud and malfeasance into the art world--everything from "artnapping," in which an artwork is held hostage and only returned for a ransom, to forgery and tax fraud. However, the extent of the economic and cultural damage that results from criminality in the global art scene rarely comes to light. The stories of high-stakes, brazen art crimes told by art experts Stefan Koldehoff and Tobias Timm are by turns thrilling, disturbing, and unbelievable (the imagination for using art to commit crimes seems boundless). The authors also provide a well-founded analysis of what needs to change in the art market and at museums. From the authors of False Pictures, Real Money (about the Beltracchi art forgery case), Art and Crime includes a chapter on art owned by Donald Trump. It is a thoroughly researched, explosive, and highly topical book that uncovers the extraordinary and multifarious thefts of art and cultural objects around the world.

A brief intellectual history of the idea of the art public. The Art Public explores the history of efforts to imagine a collective, general audience for art in the world. Oskar Bätschmann explores both written and pictorial evidence of the development of the “art public” as an idea and disentangles connections between art production, audiences, and actual reception. Two aspects shape the narrative: the transformation of the audience from passive recipient to active agent as well as satirical jabs at audiences by the likes of Cruikshank, Rowlandson, and Daumier. This sweeping account connects the ancient Greeks with Renaissance painters, modern writers, and contemporary movie stars in a deft survey of the ways we imagine art’s immediate impact on audiences and its afterlives in museums, galleries, and the world.

Door den Heer VAN KAMPEN uitgenoodigd, om na het vertalen van den Phaedo en den Theaetetus, mijne krachten tot de overbrenging van Plato’s Republiek in te spannen, deinsde ik in den beginne voor dien arbeid terug. Eindelijk echter heeft mijne genegenheid voor dat boek, hetwelk op mijn eigen ontwikkeling een grooten invloed heeft uitgeoefend, en de overweging, dat PLATO uit geen zijner schriften beter kan gekend worden, mij doen besluiten het werk op mij te nemen, vooral, daar het tegenwoordig welligt meer dan vroeger als heilzaam kan beschouwd worden, Plato’s Republiek toegankelijk te maken. Een paar plaatsen heb ik eenigzins bekort. Die het oorspronkelijke niet kennen, zullen er niets door missen; en de literatoren, die mijne vertaling misschien in handen nemen, zullen mij, hoop ik, gelijk geven. Ik heb weinig aanteekeningen bij den text gevoegd. Plato’s Republiek is voor den vertaler moeijelijk, maar na de vertaling blijft er weinig over, dat nog eene opzettelijke verklaring noodig heeft. Daarenboven was veel van hetgeen nog opheldering zou behoeven, door mij reeds vroeger behandeld. In zulke gevallen heb ik mij vergenoegd derwaarts te verwijzen.

"Value" is arguably one of the key concepts of the globalized world. In this world, to be is to be or have a value, while all thinking and implementing has the form of valuing and evaluating. Thanks to their operative expediency, both the concept of value and thinking through values appear as sufficient and such as not to need any interrogation as to their provenance and implications. The essays of this volume, on the other hand, provide insights precisely in these aspects by presenting, on the one hand, classical philosophical sources on value, and, on the other, readings that show how the concept of value shapes our manner of thinking in pivotal issues and domains of economics, culture and knowledge.

Donald Duck ist eine Ente wie du und ich. Unendlich nah und doch unerreichbar. Diese Ente hat die Generation der heute 70-jährigen ihr Leben lang begleitet als Vorbild und Mahnung. Komplexe Fragen aber, wie "Vielleicht, wenn ich mich hier hinsetze und auf die Sumpfhühner starre, die im Sumpf rumsumpfen, vermeide ich allen Ärger", warten auf Antworten. Zweiter Hauptsatz der Thermodynamik - pah! Das Buch versucht die Rolle von Herrn Duck für unseren Alltag zu ergründen. Rückblick: Durch die Publikation des "Der Hamburger Donaldist" importierte Hans von Storch in den 1970ern den Donaldismus aus Norwegen. Seitdem ist viel geschehen.
