Art Bridge New York - Cologne - New York Published by Wasmuth. Edited by Peter Krueger. Forewords by Norbert Burger and Peter Krueger. Texts by Bill Arning, Heinz H. Becker, Iris Bruckgraber, Leo Castelli, et al. Cologne and New York have both been decisive cities for American, European and Asian artists of the past 50 years. If in the 1960s and 70s their art scenes were characterized by a possibility of community and collective endeavor, in the 80s and 90s they experienced a surge of economic clout in a world focused increasingly on market "values." Through a network of references, connections and contrasts culled from critics, artists, gallery owners, collectors, curators and museum directors, Art Bridge identifies and explores the artistic, economic and historical interaction between and development of the art markets of Cologne and New York.
