Could Have, Would Have, Should Have Inside the World of the Art Collector by Tiqui Atencio
The Buying & Selling Of Art | Drama and Tragedy
Atencio introduces us to a group of collectors who have shaped their passion for collecting.
As a series of intimate portraits, drama, and tragedy unfold in each collector’s life. Each chapter begins with a collector’s love story about how they first began to collect art. We learn about their successes and failures in bidding for art.
Ultimately, the book addresses how we make sense of our relationship with art and why some people collect more than others.

Learning about the art world can seem elusive. It shouldn’t be.
Building your art bookshelf is a forever-ongoing process. I’ve included an Amazon link to help you find the right next book for you, but you can always purchase at your local bookstore in person or at bookshop.org.
The books are organized into categories. The First Books are for those brand-new to the art world. More seasoned collectors can jump ahead to dive deeper into specific threads.
