Auction Houses Encroach on Dealer Turf
Dealers were incensed in March when Sotheby’s and Christie’s took out booths, front and center, at the Maastricht art fair, traditionally a dealer-only showcase. Here’s a thoughtful discourse by Georgina Adam at The Art Newspaper about the shifting sands of the art market:

I’d love to hear if anyone has other ideas about how dealers might protect their turf?

Christies has also just purchased a gallery which has created even more confusion and criticism.
