Julia May Boddewyn has single-handedly rescued one of the greatest American art dealers of the 20th century from virtual obscurity. Impressively researched and warmly anecdotal, this is a much-needed celebration of Valentine Dudensing’s taste and talents as a pre-eminent art dealer. * Michael Findlay, Director, Acquavella Galleries, New York, USA; author of The Value of Art (2012) * Boddewyn’s ground-breaking research immerses readers in the network of dealers, collectors, critics and curators that brought European modernism to the US and made New York the capital of the transatlantic art world by the end of World War Two. * Michael FitzGerald, Kluger Family Professor of Art History, Trinity College, Hartford, USA * The groundbreaking career of the New York art dealer Valentine Dudensing—one of the first, most discerning and influential promoters of modern art—is conclusively documented in this unique compendium. Indispensable for anyone interested in the early reception of modernism in America and the transatlantic art trade. * Christel H. Force, PhD, Art historian; editor of Pioneers of the Global Art Market (2020) and The Brummer Galleries (2023) *
