Art Auction
Easy-to-use Section to Search for Upcoming Fine Art Auctions
Art lovers often further explore their passion with a subscription to an art auction magazine. Whether they’re reading about its impact on the Middle East in Art + Auction Magazine or browsing Lari Pittman’s portfolio on ArtNet, these people are effectively increasing their knowledge and becoming experts. After all, it’s a great way to find artwork for sale and build a winning investment collection.
Art & Antiques focuses on its crimes, travelers in search of international art, its book reviews, emerging artists and practical articles on its collecting. Collectors can find reviews on new artists and books here as well. For more details www.auction-words.com It’s really easy to find an appraiser who would like to take a look at one’s collection by simply sending in a photo of the items in question.
The highlight of this particular magazine is the “Editor’s Pick” section, which gives the busy lover a quick glimpse of the essential articles. Some October articles include: Enter the surreal and whimsical world of Dutch designer Hella Jongerius, Demand for antique garden ornaments is on the rise among American collectors and WEB EXCLUSIVE: Private dealer Joan Mirviss opens a brick-and-mortar location in New York. Subscriptions cost $40/year for 12 print issues.
ArtNet online magazine lets people browse their catalog of works by modern contemporary artists, track the market and peruse the price database. One of the magazine’s highlights is the easy-to-use section to search for upcoming fine art auctions. Look up galleries, artists and events with one mouse click! Some October topics include: Hidden Depths In the Drawings of Domenico Zindato, The Frieze Art Fair In London, Why You Should Give a Crap About Chris Ofili’s New Paintings and Shirana Shahbazi’s New Work Reacts Against Images of Iran.
For $30/month, subscribers can perform 10 database searches (or $80 for a professional who plans to make 30 searches per month). While one can read many of the articles on the site for free, the subscription-based service allows collectors to research how much their artwork is worth and find the best deals on much-coveted pieces. Rare works can be viewed by artist and specific market changes can be monitored.
Art + Auction Magazine covers scandals, the international scene, wine, its performance, the latest collector’s items and artists, in addition to detailing the positive impact art has on businesses and the psyche. Recent articles include: IN THE STUDIO with Laurie Simmons, Ansel Adams, the Current Status of the Antiquities Scandal That Rocked the Getty Museum and Warring Over Warhols. For more details www.auction-professional.com The artist profiles, news exclusives and international marketplace features are generally very good in this high-class art auction magazine. Subscriptions aren’t cheap though — $80/year.
British art collector Charles Saatchi once said, “There are no rules about investment. Sharks can be good. Artist’s dung can be good. Oil on canvas can be good. There’s a squad of conservators out there to look after anything an artist decides is art.” Subscribers of an art auction magazine will get the inside scoop on the convoluted world of its appraisal and will also ensure that they get the best deals on contemporary and fine art for sale.

Supernatural $3.73 The Arista debut of Carlos Santana and band gives fans of the soulful guitar vet two albums in one, but it’s a decidedly good-news, bad-news proposition. First, there’s a fine collection of late-’90s-model Santana–tastefully tooled songs driven by Latin jazz and Afro-Cuban rhythms (”[Da Le] Taleo,” “Africa Bamba,” “Migra,” “Primavera,” and the emotionally charged instrumental “El Farol”) that all… |
