gallery there, the art of the late 19 - the first half of 20 century - it was not so much - not more than 10 pieces. Among the key - Galerie Schmit, Applicat-Prazan, Le Minotaure, LAndau Fine Art and one that I can not remember, but that was simply gorgeous stand - Magritte for 10 million euros (unfortunately fotkal not allowed, so I will not describe - a well-known story of blue-leaves, larger size, clearly the level of the museum. But you will agree 10 million euros - a lot), 3 sound abstract, the head Yavlensky 1930-32 - to 1,35 million euros each, small, but very good portrait, which depicts 2 people, Modigliani for 10 million euros, yet there were суперская statuette Giacometti, and Picasso's huge size, the price at which I was even afraid to ask.
U Schmidt, I remember two fairly good de Stael 52 and 53 years for 1,5 and 2 million euros respectively. Satisfactory work, but not the best. At the Biennale was still a masterpiece de Stael, but about it later. Even with Schmitt was risunochek Matisse's small size - a lady with a fan for 300 thousand euros (all drawings by Matisse at the Biennale was a lot - and all from 200 to 300 thousand euros, but has not long ago it was possible to buy a 50 thousand ). Most of the works of Schmitt, exhibited here, we tracker at the Moscow Fine Art Fair - and Soutine and Matisse and Signac, and Degas.
Now about de Stael 54 years, which sold F. Prazan. He, himself, called it the best thing de Stael on the market (do not know about better, but the fact that in five flawlessly - a fact). If you find an image sure to lay out. The thing is really unique and very powerful, written several months before the suicide, she exudes out all the emotions of the artist at that time (at home I would not hang her, is very much a negative effect). All is good, but for this work Prazan requested 12 million. EURO!! The incredible score for the market - up to this maximum, I think, was about $ 3 million general this biennale differed overestimated by 3-4 times the price of everything, but judging by the multitude of things, it sold very few people stopped.
I remember working Lansky, fairly average quality, but remember they do not look to me, and cost - from 150 to 280 thousand euros. Its all in France a lot, for all tastes, though a good little (((
Is said that after the gala dinner on the Biennale ran a buyer, bought all the paintings of Picasso aboslyutno 38-40 years. As I understand it, this is more than 10 pieces. Picasso, by the way confirmed the glory of the popular artist, and was presented in many different ways on so many stands.
Summing up, perhaps we can say that Moscow Salon was interesting in terms of decent things, but to the level of design it to the French far. Not to mention, the quality of the stands (lights, wallpaper, design), the room itself produces a very good impression - the glass dome, and the perimeter is filled up, a land that grow real trees and grass )))))
At the sim all, thank you for your attention )))
