Download or read book The Supermodel and the Brillo Box written by Don Thompson and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2014-05-27 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acquiring contemporary art is about passion and lust, but it is also about branding, about the back story that comes with the art, about the relationship of money and status, and, sometimes, about celebrity. The Supermodel and the Brillo Box follows Don Thompson's 2008 bestseller The $12 Million Stuffed Shark and offers a further journey of discovery into what the Crash of 2008 did to the art market and the changing methods that the major auction houses and dealerships have implemented since then. It describes what happened to that market after the economic implosion following the collapse of Lehman Brothers and offers insights and art-world tales from dealers, auction houses, and former executives of each, from New York and London to Abu Dhabi and Beijing. It begins with the story of a wax, trophy-style, nude upper-body sculpture of supermodel Stephanie Seymour by Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan, which sold for $2.4 million to New York über-collector and private dealer Jose Mugrabi, and recounts the story of a wooden Brillo box that sold for $722,500. The Supermodel and the Brillo Box looks at the increasing dominance of Christie's, Sotheby's, and a few über dealers; the hundreds of millions of new museums coming up in cities like Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Beijing; the growing importance of the digital art world; and the shrinking role of the mainstream gallery.

He began to make up rhymes nonstop—and made his way from financial hardship to the throne of a music empire.

Download or read book Back to Troublesome Creek written by Duane Acker and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A former university president tells about his later encounters in the federal bureaucracy, including an agency with more people than work to be done and how “special projects” get included in appropriation bills. He also relates global encounters, including a four-acre Philippine farm that financed two children through college, Guatemalans being paid with food aid for digging the trenches for their sewer system, a Bolivian farmer proudly showing his harvest of drying coca leaves, and Eastern Europeans’ difficult transition to free enterprise. Back in Washington, he describes political pressure to finance a cigarette manufacturing line in Turkey and a pork research center in his home state, and how membership in his home town country club risked his nomination to be assistant secretary of agriculture. Returning to operate his home farm yielded more anecdotes, including a near collision in the cornfield with a somersaulting Plymouth, potential embarrassment of dragging an implement’s tongue mid-field, and the obstacles in building an egg layer facility that now employs twenty eight local people.
