Contemporary art in museums

[LCR]

Сообщение от qwerty

LCR, excuse me, I do not quite understand, curiously, in this event. Sale of private museums, some of his exhibits - not uncommon, you yourself have written about it, quite rightly, pointing out one of the reasons. Sometimes the money just need to repair, to expand, to buy something else. So what is special? Explain, please.

qwerty, sorry, that did not respond earlier, I overlooked your message.

You're absolutely right - private museums often sell items from its collections, and it is logical to assume that they do not sell those pieces that are particularly dear.

The museum - which has been very active in the field of Russian art, get rid of an outmoded picture - one of the features of modern art is that it quickly ceases to be relevant - "fusing" of the American private collection (it is symptomatic - individuals always react to changing trends, with some delay - both on the exchange), realizing what was happening, the owner of the newly masterpiece puts it up for auction - what a blessing that Russian buyers rake everything they offer!

In general, work with the origins, I would not buy (you tell me, me, no one makes - and you're right, as always: p)

fross, I think the answer on your question.
