About these books, say the publication had it coming for a long time. In the case of "the International art market from A to z", you must add: arises not only publication, but a forced distribution of it to the editors of all publications, writing about the art market. And at least the compulsory reading for broadcast competent terminology to the masses.

Today in Russian publications about the art are mostly used adapted materials of foreign publications. Unfortunately, word translation, combined with the work of proofreaders sometimes work from professional term unrecognizable counterparts, filling them far from the core meaning. Gradually, this language is part of everyday life of the functionaries of the market, words and definitions students pick creative and economic Universities doing part of their research, placed on the shelves of libraries. The result is dear Mei and Moses from one job to another write something about profitability, profit — and the collector carrying the work after the London auction, pays the income tax, the profit tax, export tax.

the Book of art historian, member of the International Association of art-критиков (AICA) Tom Flynn — is a kind of Glossary, dictionary of terminology used in the daily work of art-рынок. Each word or definition is brief, but simply and professionally explained to the reader, leaving no ambiguity of interpretation. In many cases, articles are supplemented with links to the source where it was first used (and include in the Glossary Flynn — is actually assigned to the market) particular term. The author is not limited dictionary of terms, but completes the picture with a brief information about those, in fact, created them and continues to work on the art-рынке today, — dealers, galleries and fairs.

it is hoped that once all the media one way or another relevant to the arts, to meet and agree on a common Glossary. And in the near future. Speaking as a moderator on the forum Art Business Conference in 2018 in London, Tom Flynn hinted that the next procedure of the Department of art-зерен from art-плевел touch technologies in contemporary art. Today, as never before, expect it online-кабинеты, showrooms and workshops, virtual museums, galleries and residences, digital art, augmented reality and a blockchain.
