as can be seen on the commercial side of art without understanding its positioning in the market?

Imagine that you are highly educated and experienced auctioneer, specializing in contemporary painting. Your task is to sell lots at the maximum price. (Similar goals and a gallery owner). You have brought to sell works by the artist, whose name is not abstracted in the media and in specialized publications. However, you as a person highly educated, experienced and in addition has nezamylenym eye and instinct can see that in front of you exercises amateur or mediocre Mazilu, and the thing is aesthetically and technically accomplished at the level of the world's best in the field of contemporary art. You should appreciate it.
Your actions?

I should add that you, as a professional with high sample are well aware that in addition to ignorant buyers from undeveloped taste, following in their Buying Tips kinds of "specialists", fashion magazines, "artinvestitsionnyh" Web resources and just a monkey sense that if is in X, it should be and I have, there are collectors, perfectly versed in the heart of the matter, relying on their intuition and erudition, and, thus, not constrained in the media.

Of course, you look at what is happening in the market in this segment. For our case, above all, should apply to the prices of the founder of this direction, neo-geo, Peter Halley. He formatted the work currently being sold in the range of 40-60 thousand dollars. Another participant in this market, the only Russian in the famous gallery Denis Rene, Yuri yellow. His paintings gallery sells for 15-30 thousand euros. Thus, we have a price target. From an aesthetic point of view of our artist do not concede, the works of these authors, but in relation to yellowish and excel. But the founder of the directions, and do not know about this neophyte, are already known and accepted by the market. Cledovatelno similar in format and technique now estimate at 30-40%lower. Somewhere in the vicinity of 20 thousand dollars. Gouache is smaller on labor costs and materials. The preliminary score: 5 thousand dollars for the size of 45H60 and 3 thousand dollars for those that are smaller. From this perspective, and auctioned off and see to confirm the market or not, our professional conclusions, having, of course, given that in any auction there is always the element of chance. Ie not passed on this auction, do not repeat the following.

While the willingness reproduced reception does not speak in favor of the artist

Propagate reception can not be duplicated products using the reception. Dark Artist is doing. But this is not our case. The presented work a decade ago. Author in technology and techniques went on, the principle remains - in his compositions depict images of complex social patterns, urban landscapes, and simple objects that surround us.
