I would say that we are in this case is not about that. Investors are looking for alternative ways of investing money, and collecting - one of them. Moreover, as the experience of recent years, collecting revenue ahead of traditional financial assets. And really what to build - a picture or pants pop stars - a matter of personal biases and financial intuition.

It turns out that the pants are:
  "Works of art represent one of the few investments that can bring more profits."
Alexander, I do not agree. (What cowards is prizvedeniya Arts)
I understand that I will fall again, now all fans of the Socialists pop art ... but that's my opinion.

Admin, "..... a plastic cow's backside with a TV inside will be in demand more than a virtuoso performance picture ...."

Your opinion, Alexander where art, and where the "rubbish" (qwerty)?

The question, incidentally, curious. If you start from the definition that art - is the product of a creative process, you will have to admit that, for example, painting, made from nature (landscape, still life, even a portrait), art is not. This can be called a craft, perhaps even executed masterfully and brilliantly, but not art. That is, artists, who are called brilliant draftsman, not necessarily the creators. Artisans, high-class - yes. But the creators ...

As you are such a seditious thought? Although convinced that I was not the first expressing her (just have not studied this issue in detail).

  Alexander on your turns: Lena Hades, certainly a genius creator?. (If you count the dog turd art object.) http://forum.artinvestment.ru/showthread.php?t=3995

Although sometimes, too, draws a good picture of how a simple: "Craftsman".

About the genius we have not talked, not attributed to me something I have not made.

Genius can be called that goes beyond the traditional inert thinking that created the first time that anyone before simply could not come to mind. For example, Einstein - genius: the theory of space-time of First of relativity could invent a genius, it could not have come at somebody or another, even an academic's head (except in crazy). Newton ... - If we talk about "opening" of the law of universal gravitation, the confidence in his genius in this case I do not. It is known that the law of gravity has been studied by many naturalists long before Newton. Newton, in this case properly propiaril own research in this area. Well, and so on. It's the same with works of art.
