Sotheby's, lots of autumn exhibition of the best trades

[Konstantin]

Just come with a media preview of the best lots of autumn auction in the Historical Museum.

Interesting experience but all in order.
Press conference was opened by Mikhail Kamensky. Speech took two minutes and can be expressed in one sentence: "In the market an extraordinary revival."
Poltimore was also brief, noted "the remarkable activity" and "crisis marked the end." Compared with 2009, an increase of 26%, though what I have already forgotten. Speed probably. Poltimore also noted extreme prices in the French Impressionists. And we discovered who the culprit of these happy events. Representatives of the two countries set the tone: Russia and China.
Characteristics of the Russian art market, according to representatives of Sotheby's, looks like this:
After 10 years of growth, despite the crisis of 2008, Russian art market is stable and confident. Turnover in 2009 $ 88 million in this year's expected $ 90 million. This is good news for investors and collectors.

That's colleagues, our fellow fellows. Somehow I was happy and light. Okay okay ... almost no jokes.
