Seeing Slowly by Michael Findlay

In this highly engaging and empowering book, Michael Findlay, an internationally respected art dealer, urges museum goers to unplug from the audio tour, ignore those information labels, and really see art with all of their senses.
"I highly recommend Michael Findlay's new book, Seeing Slowly: Looking at Modern Art, published in September by PrestelA longtime director at New York's Acquavella Galleries and, before that, the longtime head of Christie's department of Impressionist and modern art, Findlay is a veteran of the most specialized art speak and practical matters of history, condition, provenance - the works. Nevertheless, he believes that an appreciation of great art does not depend on knowledge of context and, in some cases, can actually be hindered by it." - Sarah Douglas, Editor-in-Chief, ArtNews
MICHAEL FINDLAY is Director of Acquavella Galleries in New York City and the author of The Value of Art (Prestel).
