This Italian bookstore specializing in contemporary art has a database of 9,500 titles including out-of-print titles.   Records for exhibition catalogs include a list of “artisti”: names of artists included in the show.  NB: The only way I could enter the site was to through the “arte contemporanea” link at the bottom of the page.  None of the other links (including “enter”) worked.
