Summary “Around the world, there is a small army of art handlers, packer, craters, skilled drivers, riggers, conservators, technicians, photographers, international freighters and others who quietly handle some of the most valuable and precious objects on the planet. Throughout this book we meet the dozens of individuals who have played a role in the industry’s development: museum registrars, conservators, visionaries, business people, logistics experts, art fanatics, art handlers and drivers, designers and customers. The result is a palette of colourful stories, rich with the history of overlapping lives and livelihoods, all driven by a passion for this valuable and often uncharted endeavour: the art of moving art.”--Back cover.
