Masterpiece Art Introduction
For hundreds of years, society's elite have spent vast sums of money to build art collections of prestige and historical significance. Although most people consider Christie's and Sotheby's to be the primary (or perhaps sole) players in the masterpiece art market, in reality there are vast networks of brokers, dealers, and galleries that participate in the trading of this rare commodity. Often highly secretive, the masterpiece art market has, until recently, maintained near-total immunity from governmental regulation and public scrutiny. This has given rise to corruption, manipulation, and the wielding of monopolistic power by these players. Join us now as Ooks.com Director of Content, Xavier L. Griffin, takes us behind the scenes of the masterpiece art market.
