    About The Author: 

    Philippe Ségalot joined Christie’s in New York in 1996 as contemporary art specialist before becoming the company’s international head of contemporary art. Franck Giraud joined Christie’s in New York as impressionist and modern art specialist in 1988 and became the international head of impressionist and modern art at Christie’s in 1996. The two formed the New York– and Paris-based art consultancy firm Giraud.Pissarro.Ségalot with partner Lionel Pissarro in 2001. After Giraud retired in 2012, the company became Ségalot LP and is focused on twentieth- and twenty-first-century art under the direction of Philippe Ségalot.

    Art historian Joachim Pissarro is Professor Emeritus of Hunter College/CUNY. His most recent book is Aesthetics of the Margins/The Margins of Aesthetics: Wild Art Explained (with David Carrier). He is a founding member of Global Museums Strategies Group (together with Philippe de Montebello and Jennifer Stockman).

    Assouline’s Ultimate Collection is an homage to the art of luxury bookmaking.

Nestled in linen clamshell presentation cases, these books attract collectors, lovers of the printed page, and those who devour the culture of our time. Signaling a new level of sophistication for true connoisseurs, these unique books are works of art in their own right.
