WHAT BECOMES AN ART DEALER?

New York art dealer Larry Gagosian is “not a discoverer of artists, but rather a cultivator of those on the rise and a seducer of collectors. It is not all about the big deal, he says. It’s fun to sell a big painting, it’s also profitable, I won’t deny that, and I spend a lot of time and energy doing that. But my relationship with the artist is probably the most rewarding, the most difficult part of my profession.” The Telegraph (UK)
