About
I'm an art historian specialising in European art markets and the professional practices of the global art market. I hold a BA in Art History, a Masters in Design History from RCA and a doctorate.
I am a former Henry Moore Foundation post-doctoral research fellow at the University of Sussex and have written for numerous international art publications. I'm also author of The Body in Sculpture (Everyman Art Library, 1998), and co-editor of Colonialism and the Object: Empire, Material Culture and the Museum (Routledge, 1997). My most recent book is The A-Z of the International Art Market (Bloomsbury, 2016), a student guide to current terminology.
I am a member of the International Association of Art Critics (AICA) and a fellow of the Royal Society of Arts (RSA).
Additionally, I run a sculpture agency www.thesculptureagency.co.uk and have a Provenance Research partnership with Angelina Giovani, MA www.flynngiovani.com.
