useums and galleries need several different sources of energy if they are to thrive, if they are to be more than M mausolea of the tastes of the past. We are constantly on the hunt for talented curators, enlightened supporters, beautiful spaces and compelling exhibitions. But, in the end, nothing matters more than the collections themselves. Works of art are our life blood, and their acquisition ensures that our story – the story of art – can grow and evolve. To buy a work of art is to identify a piece of the ever-expanding jigsaw puzzle of our creativity. Like collectors everywhere, we buy with our eyes and our minds both. We need to feel the power of a sculpture or a drawing or of a piece of pottery. And at the same time we need to consider its significance, to think hard about what story it tells. That can be about the celebration of a great acknowledged talent – a task that should never be neglected or underestimated. And it can be about the joy of the unfamiliar. It’s always wonderful to vault the fence of the existing canon to discover pastures new. Expertise is essential but so is an open heart. ‘Knowledge It’s that treasure trove of recognized masterpieces and comes with works by lesser known talents that makes London Art Week so special. Twice a year, we are encouraged to embark on discovery.’ a voyage of discovery, to take an aesthetic journey that takes in both wonderfully safe harbours and fascinatingly uncharted territories. Our dealer colleagues are often ahead of the game in seeing quality in categories that have traditionally been neglected. The new can be constantly discovered in the past – and I’m always excited by encountering a (to me) 4
01-07 LAW REVISED 26_4.indd 4 26/04/2018 13:30 unknown name or an unexpected facet to an established figure. Knowledge comes with discovery. It can’t and shouldn’t always be prior. How otherwise will our perceptions expand? I sometimes hear the lament that all the great works of art are now in museums and so it’s hard to find masterpieces. In the first place that’s just not true. More than six years at the Met has taught me that. Great dealers spot things. They track them down. And, by so doing, they discover for us works of art that are sometimes as remarkable as anything we already own. It’s a great source of pride that as I return each art season to my native city, I see displayed exactly what can be achieved by talented, questing art dealers chasing down works of art for a demanding, discriminating and, I think, increasingly inquiring body of collectors, inside and outside museums.
