A book that is also a memoir. Over his long career as a gallerist, Massimo Mini has encountered a multitude of artists and forged lasting friendships with many of them. In these 80 brief texts, Minini paints miniature portraits that are irresistibly perspicacious-full of wry humor and empathy - telling anecdotes of fellowships and misunderstandings, bizarre demands regarding logistics and materials, the gargantuan efforts put into creating unforgettable exhibitions, the artists he courted and the ones who got away. A small anthology of candid confessions and unfiltered reflections, in an aphoristic style that is sure to fascinate and entertain any lover of contemporary art. Some of the many artists it depicts: Vito Acconci | Lucio Amelio | Robert Barry | Gabriele Basilico | Vanessa Beecroft | Alighiero Boetti | George Brecht | Daniel Buren | James Lee Byars | Luciano Fabro | Hans-Peter Feldmann | Yona Friedman | Dan Graham | Peter Halley | Anish Kapoor | Sol LeWitt | Manfred Pernice | Emilio Prini | Gerard Richter | Tino Sehgal | Nedko Solakov | Ian Wilson | Francesca Woodman...
