How to build a worthwhile art collection with the least possible money
"...the only important thing about this art, as any art, is the art itself. Not its monetary value, not its social prestige, not its public relations leverage, not the artists themselves, and not the fact that you collected them first. The only thing that counts - the only prize in the game - is who ends up with the paintings."
–Eugene M. Schwartz
The new edition of the out-of-print facsimile from 1970. In it, Schwartz explains his philosophy of art collecting and how to build a successful art collection in simple steps.
Schwartz was a copywriter and author of several successful books on advertising. With his wife, Barbara Schwartz, he assembled one of the most important collections of contemporary American art at the time. They generously donated hundreds of important works from their collection to institutions across the United States.
With an afterword by John Beeson. 2015-01-01, 3rd edition
