08 "Sotheby's in 2009, plans to open its representative office in Ukraine
Sotheby's plans to open its representative office in Ukraine, said director of Russian Art Sotheby's in London, Joanna Vickery.
"I think that we later came to Ukraine, I had to do this year and a half ago. I think the Bureau Sotheby's will be organized in Kiev in the next year," - she said.
May 15, 2008 auction house Sotheby's opened the first exhibition of top lots of the auction of Russian art at the Kiev Museum of Western Art named after Bogdan and Varvara Khanenko. On Wednesday, May 22, this exhibition, complemented by three works of the Impressionists, was opened in the Moscow Museum of Architecture named Schuseva. While the Ukrainian market of art deals with the general director of Sotheby's Russia and CIS Michael Kamensky.
Vickery noted that the flow of new buyers from the Ukraine has grown considerably, so the organization of representation Sotheby's in Kiev, personally it seems necessary.
"We are in Kiev, took a very warm, and was pronounced very great interest in the upcoming auction lots, especially the Ukrainian artists - Bogomazova, Exter, Goncharova," - explained the agency's interlocutor.
She added that the part of Ukrainian clients auction raised questions about the possible construction of the Ukrainian market, by analogy with the Russian trading. "The fact that both Russian and Ukrainian collectors are looking mostly the same things and the big names. Therefore, separate Russian and Ukrainian problematic trades" - continued Vickery.
According to her, the difficulty lies in how to identify - Ukrainian artist or not. "Who called the Ukrainian artist: someone who was born there or lived?" But the majority still studied in Moscow or St. Petersburg and belonged to the Russian school of painting "- she said.
However, in its opinion, the Ukrainian collectors have a great impact on sales growth in Russia's art market. "We expect that the results of June's Russian sale in London, amount to no less than 60 million dollars", - said the agency interlocutor.
Asked whether the auction of Sotheby's to conduct auctions in Ukraine, Vickery said that at first she wanted to hold an auction in Moscow. Interlocutor agency recalled the famous auction organized by Sotheby's in 1988.
"Moscow may soon become the same sales center of art, what are today in London and New York. But the bidding auctions in western Russia depends primarily on Russia's legislation and the will of Russian politicians," - she said.
