The Museum and the Market: Complementary Career Paths?
Sotheby’s, 1334 York Avenue at East 71st Street (Map)
Over the past 30 years, several noted art historians have deftly led the way, moving between the museum and commercial worlds, once considered polar opposites. Indeed, the skill sets required to be successful as an art museum curator and an auction house specialist have become increasingly mutually beneficial. This panel will examine the language both sides use to describe a work of art, and the tactics they employ to promote its significance. Panelists will include Richard Brettell, the Margaret McDermott Distinguished Chair of Art and Aesthetics at the University of Texas at Dallas; Charlotte Eyerman, the American Director of FRAME; and two senior Sotheby’s specialists from the old master paintings and contemporary art departments. The panel will be moderated by Jason Herrick, Museum Services, Sotheby’s.
Directions: Take the 4/6 trains to the 68th Street/Hunter College stop. Walk north to East 71st Street and east four blocks to York Avenue.

The Role of Art Supplies in the Art Revolution in Nineteenth-Century Paris
Trianon Ballroom, 3rd Floor, Hilton New York
Presenters: Pierre Guidetti; Dominique Sennelier; Pascale Richard; and Michael Skalka
The topic of this session is the evolution of art supplies, particularly from the nineteenth through the twenty-first centuries. The influence of art supplies (and the industrial revolution) on the artists, trends, and different schools of art will be examined. Did the Impressionist movement in Paris—with its explosion of creativity and deliberate break from tradition—influence art material manufacturers to change the way they were making things? This question will be explored by examining the only art supply store that existed during this period and still exists today, Sennelier, which is located in Paris, in the very heart of where the Impressionists were living and working. Life and art in Paris during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries will be discussed; different points of view, using historical facts, artist anecdotes, historical artifacts and photographs, will be examined. Literature and samples will be provided.
