We’re excited to have at Backstory art dealer and writer Orlando Whitfield. His first book All That Glitters tells the story of greed and money in the art world with the insight of someone who experienced it all firsthand.
About the book:
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 - suddenly 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 you to the heart of the contemporary art world, a place wilder and wealthier than you could ever imagine.
