Bidding Swiss art at Sotheby's in Zurich, June 14, 2010

[LCR]

Sotheby's pet me - the day before yesterday received catalogs Russian session yesterday - Latin American art today - Trading Swiss artists. Concierge, in my opinion, not very happy with such a hyper-active behavior of the famous auction house, and I am pleased and interested.

So, the Swiss bid (by the way, the answer to a question, in my opinion, Lorart: London are not satisfied with the sessions of the various national arts, because they spend directly in the countries concerned - Italian art - in Milan The Chinese - Hong Kong, etc. The situation with Russian art special, because they do not conduct auctions in Russia).

Catalogue of the trades did not bezinteresen. In particular, it has enriched my knowledge about family Giacometti. The names of Alberto and his younger brother Diego, of course, known to all. But I did not know that their father, Giovanni, was also a painter (nothing special, but I present here three of his works to increase the cultural baggage), and that's not all: there is also a Giacometti-uncle, Augusto Giacometti, Giovanni's cousin, who wrote very beautiful pictures. It is possible that even went out and brought some Giacometti-svoyachennitsa, Giacometti, brother-in-law or brother-in-Giacometti. I will keep you informed of further investigation!
