THE SUPERMODEL AND THE BRILLO BOX

Acquiring contemporary art is about passion and lust, but it is also about branding, about the back story that comes with the art, a bout the relationship of money and status, and, sometimes, about celebrity. The Supermodel and the Brillo Box follows Don Thompsons 2008 bestseller The $12 Million Stuffed Shark and offers a further journey of discovery into what the Crash of 2008 did to the art market and the changing methods that the major auction houses and dealerships have implemented since then.
