This book explores the visual evolution of the legendary connoisseur and philanthropist Roberto Polo through a selection of over three hundred masterpieces and magnificent gemstones from the extraordinary collections which he has formed. At an early age, Roberto Polo revealed a powerful talent as a visual artist, exhibiting his work in major art museums and galleries. Thanks to his profound knowledge of art history and theory, he also revealed an astonishing talent for identifying exceptional art and gemstones from many periods and origins. Roberto Polo was educated at the Corcoran School of Art, where he was appointed professor at the precocious age of sixteen, and at Columbia University. At the age of twenty-four, he conceived and organized the now landmark exhibition Fashion as Fantasy, featuring works especially created by fifty-four exhibitors, including David Hockney, Robert Motherwell and Andy Warhol. Roberto Polo was instrumental in founding Citibank?s Fine Art Investment Services, the first department of its kind in the banking industry. In 1981, he left Citibank and became an independent art and gemstone investment advisor. During this period, he formed collections of French eighteenth, nineteenth and twentieth-century fine and decorative arts, as well as of gemstones, described by Le Journal des Arts as ?anthological?. In 1988, the French Republic bestowed on him the medal of Commandeur de l?ordre des Arts et de Lettres for his contributions to French art and culture.In the same year, he became the victim of a Kafkaesque judicial affair from which he rose in 1995, according to The New York Times , as ?the wonderful phoenix of the art market?, now championing Historical Design and Modernism independently and through Galerie Historismus. Described by Le Figaro as ?The Eye? and by Architectural Digest as ?The Trendsetter of the Art Market?, Roberto Polo continues to follow his edict that one should only acquire art which was revolutionary in its time.Exquisitely illustrated with over four hundred colour photographs, and with texts by leading art and jewellery historians, this book is a fascinating insight into the man described by Art & Auction , as ?one of the ten people who have made a difference in the art market? and an illuminating account of his forty years of collecting activity.

L on SPILLIAERT De Oorsprong van het Beeld Tekeningen en prenten in dialoog De tentoonstelling L on Spilliaert. De Oorsprong van het Beeld toont hoe het creatief proces van schets en tekening een ondersteunende rol speelde bij het tot stand komen van originele prenten en gravures in Spilliaerts oeuvre. Als jonge tekenaar bleef Spilliaert stilstaan bij gevoelens zoals liefde en dood, eenzaamheid, verlangen en schaamte en wierp hij een bezielde blik op de relaties tussen de man en de vrouw en tussen de mensen onderling. Daarbij illustreerde hij ook in kleine genuanceerde zelfportretten, eenvoudig met potlood en inkt, als zovele snapshots, de evolutie van zijn eigen zelfbeeld. Deze kritisch momentane en veelal zeer spontane aantekeningen vertegenwoordigen subtiel de diepere intieme ontledingen van zijn innerlijk getormenteerde geest. /// L on SPILLIAERT The Origin of the Image Drawings and prints in dialogue The exhibition L on Spilliaert. The Origin of the Image shows how the creative process of sketching and drawing played a supporting role in the creation of original prints and engravings in Spilliaert's oeuvre. As a young draftsman, Spilliaert dwelled on feelings such as love and death, loneliness, longing and shame, and he took an inspired look at the relationships between man and woman and between people themselves. In addition, he also illustrated the evolution of his own self-image in small nuanced self-portraits, simply with pencil and ink, like so many snapshots. These critically momentary and often very spontaneous notes subtly represent the deeper intimate dissections of his inner tormented mind. For the first time, exceptional works from private collections are (again) brought together here, which for many will mean a rediscovery of the artist's work. Voor het eerst worden hier uitzonderlijke werken uit priv verzamelingen (weer) samen gebracht die voor velen een herontdekking van het werk van de kunstenaar zullen betekenen.
