Join the Rizzoli bookstore for a conversation between Valentina Castellani and Tobias Meyer, to celebrate Castellani's new book Trading Beauty: Art Market Histories from the Altar to the Gallery, published by Gagosian. An illustrated survey that traces the evolution of the Western art market from the medieval era to the present day, Trading Beauty analyzes how the social, cultural, religious, and economic circumstances of different periods have defined models of art production, validation, and valuation.
