Description - Breakfast at Sotheby's by Philip Hook
'An entire art education contained in under 350 pages. Wry, dry and completely beguiling' - Guardian, Books of the Year 2013
Fascinating and highly subjective, built on Philip Hook's thirty-five years' experience of the art market, Breakfast at Sotheby's explores the artist and his hinterland (including -isms, middle-brow artists, Gericault and suicides), subject and style (from abstract art and banality through surrealism and war), 'wall-power', provenance and market weather. Comic, revealing, piquant, splendid and absurd, Breakfast at Sotheby's is a book of pleasure and intelligent observation.
