Customer satisfaction Richard Hambleton "Landscape" Silver#2

“Richard would walk in while I was shooting up in my leg, and offer me caviar.” Although some gallerists stayed loosely in touch with Hambleton, the art world quickly moved on to new names and new trends. Robert Murphy, an art collector who bought large quantities of Hambleton’s work during the wilderness years of the mid-1990s, recalls in Shadowman: “I believe Richard was near death when I met him. He was a side note at that time, selling his art for nothing to anyone who would buy it.”
