Figures du désir: une histoire de la collection d'art (Figures of Desire: A History of Art Collecting) traces a multiplicity of aesthetic attitudes through the prism of certain key figures in the history of taste. Over the course of the chapters, we discover how art collecting reflects—or responds to—an individual's character.
Olivier Berggruen (born 1963 in Winterthur, Switzerland, lives and works in New York) is a German-American art historian and curator.
