FIAC 92: German Industry and Art
The 1992 FIAC art fair in Paris featured a discussion on corporate art collections, focusing on the German industry's role. Heinz Peter Schwerfel interviewed Herbert Zapp, who introduced contemporary art to Deutsche Bank, and Winfried Reckermann, a Cologne-based gallerist for 25 years. The phenomenon of corporate collections, born from enlightened passion, speculative calculation, or marketing decisions, highlights the commerce-culture relationship.
