{"product_id":"art-and-the-market-craufurd-d-goodwin-9780472109029","title":"Art and the Market: Roger Fry on Commerce in Art, Selected Writings, Edited with an Interpretation","description":"Roger Fry, a core member of the Bloomsbury Group, was involved with all aspects of the art market as artist, critic, curator, historian, journalist, advisor to collectors, and gallery operator. He is especially remembered as the person who introduced postimpressionist art to Britain. \u003cbr\u003eReprinted in this volume are seventeen of Fry's works on commerce in art. Although he had no formal training in economics, Fry addressed the art market as a modern economist might do. It is therefore fitting that his writings receive here an original interpretation from the perspective of a modern economist, Craufurd D. Goodwin. Goodwin explores why Fry's work is both a landmark in the history of cross-disciplinary thought and a source of fresh insights into a wide range of current policy questions. \u003cbr\u003eThe new writings included contain Fry's most important contributions to theory, history, and debates over policy as he explored the determinants of the supply of art, the demand for art, and the art market institutions that facilitate exchange. His ideas and speculations are as stimulating and provocative today as when they were written.\u003cbr\u003e\"A fascinating selection of essays by one of the twentieth century's most thoughtful and stimulating critics.
