On auctions Russian Art Gallery
 

I confess, it was a shame to listen to a recent comment from one of the youth in attendance about the professional approach to conducting our auctions. And a stone was thrown into the garden "level of sales."

Yes, in all media, we have always talked openly that our bid has spent a maximum of 25-30 works from 80. But this is a real tangible sales. And each of them we are glad.

Well, if "professionalism" is a broad Announcing the general public of 99 sold lots of 100, and the subsequent distribution of "retired" owners of works, we chose another path.

In 2008 we opened a branch in Toronto, got its own representative in the United States and Germany. So conduct a consistent job of collecting material.

By the way, count on your support. We are interested to take its bid work from the visitors' ArtInvestment. "

For three years we got 57 unique buyers are among the stable include 23 (included in the Collectors Club Russian Art Gallery). We do seem good rezulatom.

Ready to take into account in our work any of your suggestions and comments.

With respect to all visitors

Tell us how you do it? And how to be out of town if he wants to bring pictures to your auctions?

I worked with this auction. Experience of cooperation is positive. The selection of my works up for auction, in my Peer, was strange, but I think it was the beginning. We have already looked through some sort of strategy, some sort of positioning.

artcol,
Most importantly, the work sold out! You have all gone? You present yourself to the auction? The people were many, and whether it is active or just public?

Immediately tell - it was 2,5 years ago. From my not sold anything:)
It was a bet on one job, but the buyer it ultimately did not buy.
As I wrote - was a strange selection of works, ie in my view were selected work that could not sell.
One work, for I was a-b-m interesting in the end left a year (there is a suspicion that seen in the catalog, and then came to me).
In general, the impression is positive, thus it is necessary to consider the following. moments:
1) RGI - this is not a pure auction, this is more a promotional structure that moves a circle of artists (well, perhaps directions, schools). In principle, this is wonderful.
2) They do not have such opportunities as a Sovkoma, so all the local and much smaller.
And so working with them can and should. Kirill here have lamented the count auctions in Russia, but they have like 3 years on the market.

artcol,
And the last question - for participation in the auction that some have to pay? In Sovkome charge $ 200 for one lot, well, plus self-premium in the sale.

Here I can not say anything. Better to ask the organizers.

That's me to the fact that not all the world pebble on Sovkome. There are alternatives. But in the longer term, but all the same.

Personally I have a very positive views about working with Sovkomom. He sold off all! Among the new auctions am still cautious, because reluctance pictures back and forth from Sochi to carry. If there is no pre-auction pre-auction promotion upcoming auction, then the confidence in the sale of your lots there is none.

Well, yes, Sovkom number 1 in Russia. It was immediately clear how they started. And now it and even more so.

A Gelos? For how many auctions more Sovkoma. The quality will not undertake to judge, as a novice in this matter.
