DECEPTION IS A FINE ART. When Orlando Whitfield first meets Inigo Philbrick, they are students dreaming of dealing art for a living. Their friendship lasts for fifteen years until one day, Inigo - by then the most successful dealer of his generation - disappears, accused of a fraud so gigantic and audacious it rocks the art world to its core.

A sparklingly sharp memoir of greed, ambition and madness, All That Glitters will take youto the heart of the contemporary art world, a place wilder and wealthier than you could ever imagine.

Rezensionen
Studded with blue-chip names, multi-million-dollar paintings, private jets and bottles of Dom Pérignon '08, this tantalizing glimpse by a former dealer into the art world's most rarefied stratum doubles as a cautionary tale about a largely unregulated industry where hubris, greed and fraud abound New York Times
