Guest Editor: Martin Berger

Contributions by Anna Antonini, Martin Berger, Caroline Fernandes Caromano, Mariana Francozo, Viola Koenig, Mary E Miller, Megan O’Neil, Carolina Orsini, Payton Phillips Quintanilla, Andrew D. Turner, Federica Villa 

This issue examines the influence that art market actors (specifically dealers and collectors) had on the formation of collections in museums in Europe and the United States.
