Season «Autumn - Winter 2008». A brief forecast of the price of Russian bid
ARTinvestment.RU publishes a summary of price forecast Russians bidding Sotheby's, Christie's, Bonhams and MacDougall's coming autumn-winter season
from the upcoming November auction of Russian market participants are waiting for too much. If there is no certainty, at least the trend. If there is no trend, then at least hint at it, in which direction the events will develop. Indeed, to date, all options are possible ranging from a temporary recession and a surge in investment activity. Hold the buyers, or vice versa, hurry to make investments in cultural values? Were right there, those who believed that the decline in activity most hit by the average segment, while the most expensive and the cheapest product is almost not affected?
As the publication of auction catalogs, it became clear that all existing problems in the market added another, which is very unusual: in the November auction come unexpectedly weak set of works. Whether the sellers decided not to tempt fate, or something like that. If a segment of the post-war art has yet to see, the motion of strings art XIX - first half of XX century, this time is very weak. What could happen? If the auction will fail (and why would they be otherwise?), It immediately raised a wave of alarmist talk about the crisis afflicting the Russian art market. As usual, information events will be picked up without understanding the details. Everything that is happening provokes random thought: maybe suspend trading on the art market, «pending peritonitis»? It works, this piece on the stock market ?..
And still have to deal with the fact that there are, and we recommend these auctions collectors look to the works of the sixties - this will be interesting strings.
In offering you a review of the work included on a simple principle: what stops the eye. And that, actually, can catch in the directory? First, the product of artistic merit, and secondly, excessive estimeyt or, conversely, undervalued - each time in different ways. With the formation of projections taken moderately optimistic scenario, based on the fact that buyers remain active, but will be very sensitive to the price. Without the buzz, the money went up today.
