The Real Life of the Art World

True Colors

Giovanni Garcia-Fenech 

This will appeal to a very small demographic: people interested in the New York art world of the 1980s. But for those of us in that group, the inside stories and the gossip are priceless. The book actually begins in the 70s (roughly where Tom Wolfe's The Painted Word ended) and ends in the mid-90s, and it takes little side trips to Germany, London, and even Denmark, but the really juicy stuff is in the middle--New York and Schnabel and Salle and Basquiat and the P&D group and the graffitists and the Neo-Geos and the has-beens and the never-weres. Fantastic.
