ARTH 340 - History of Art Markets

4 credits
The study of a set of concepts or institutions relevant to the art world today, including the art market, the auction house, the art gallery, and the museum. We will consider the historical origins of each concept or institution as well as its evolution to the present day, rooting the study of each one in the history of art and its markets, from ancient Greece to Renaissance Italy to contemporary New York City, from Old Masters to Banksy. Among our subjects of study will be competition between artists, guild organization, export and repatriation, and art market bubbles.
