MasterDrawingsNew York
I was pleased and honored to be asked to write
for Master Drawings Week, New York this year,
an annual event that I really look forward to.
I have been privileged to be part of the drawings
world for many years and I can still remember
what a pleasure it was on the rare occasions
when dealers from abroad came to visit us in
New York. We could catch up with our mutual
acquaintances over a nice lunch as well as seeing
what drawings were available and there was the
inevitable talk about the sales in London and
Paris. While New York certainly had its own
auction scene, the truly important sales were
usually in London or Paris. That is different now
and New York’s auction houses have definitely
come into their own.
2010 will be the fourth year for Master
Drawings, New York. Our small world of
connoisseurs, collectors, and curators of
drawings and prints cabinets become the focus
of attention for one week in January every
year when dealers from New York and abroad
come here so that we who love drawings can
survey nearly everything on the market at a
given time. Master Drawings Week, New York
grew out of the success of Master Drawings
Week, London an event that occurs in July
during the Old Master sales week in London.
Similarly, Master Drawings Week, New York
is timed to coincide with the Old Masters sales
at Christie’s and Sotheby’s.
Drawings offer an intimate and fascinating
look into the creative process since they are
often the artist’s first thoughts for a work put
down on paper. They are unique and have an
immediacy which appeals to connoisseur and
collector alike. So this special week provides
dealers the time to show a broad spectrum of
drawing in gallery spaces, with more relaxed
and charming settings than the rather cramped
space that stands at fairs afford. Along with
quiet and not so quiet contemplation the event
also provides an alternative to the drawings in
the sales. Despite the sometimes awful weather
this is a busy and enjoyable week signaling the
true start of the New Year after the frenzy
of holiday feasting and shopping. It is also
pleasant and relaxing to greet old friends and
acquaintances and meet new ones. Last year
some eighteen dealers participated from
the States and abroad, and this year it has
expanded to twenty-two.
