Art lovers, art connoisseurs and patrons of art
At the moment I live in France. It is a beautiful country and has an attraction. It is the culture, the food or the history. Of course each country has charm and it does not deny this. But France has always attracted artists and intellectuals. Van Gogh and Modigliani also lived and worked in France. In his own lifetime they had less luck. They could not live by the art and they are rigorously respected pioneers of the art history. The collectors have ignored they and of course rather invested in the established artists or in the budding artists. The prices of art works by van Gogh, Gauguin, Rousseau (Le Douanier) and Malevich were actually very lucrative despite the isolation. Despite this, they're out of luck. They were not understood by the art collectors. Today they to mix it at the top in the art world. There is no doubt that today is still the same conditions of that time. The toothlessly art is still preferred. It is not easy to make the right investment. There are also artists are a dime a dozen. Along with it the majority of the population are not accurate interested for the art. She likes the kitsch or the copy of many copies. Once a year the people to pilgrimage from Basel to Frankfurt in the Museum Night. Some famous persons to hang up even a poster print some established art at home. The art is in the hands of the economists, and they determine the art market. This shows the profit at the expense of the art. The collectors to be guided oneself by the art journals and marketing. The whole thing is actually only hustle and bustle. It is another question whether these excessive prices really also in twenty-five, fifty or a hundred years ago is still lucrative will be. One speculates with the contemporary art from India, China, and today from Brazil and Turkey. The art fairs are lucrative investments and sprout out of the ground like mushrooms. It is chic to such art fairs to go or just to be invited. The real artists to fall by the wayside. They are and will remain untouched, as well as firm anyway. That is why it is perhaps advisable as a collector or art dealer aside from all beaten paths to follow. As a collector or just as an art dealer is it crucial not only established art to market, but also to promote no toothlessly art. The prices of the autodidacts are and were always lucrative and also for the social prestige of high-society. As one invest, investing for future generations. Simply put, it is even the investment for the grandchildren. Art is like the wine, wheat or a flower. It needs time to mature and to bloom. Only then it is completely.
