Art galleries are enormously influential in the aesthetic discourse of the modern age. They have launched the careers of the era's most important artists, and breathed life into some of its most important artistic movements. International Art Galleries is the first book to examine the modern gallery phenomenon, offering more than seventy-five portraits of art galleries from around the world, all of whom have represented the finest artists of the last sixty years, and all of whom have had a key role in defining the artistic zeitgeist. Organized decade-by-decade, each chapter is introduced by a brief historical sketch that summarizes the social background of the decade in question. The galleries are introduced by a brief factual section that details their date of foundation, proprietor, addresses and artists represented, followed by a lively illustrated essay.
