This is called the absence of significant differences, in this case, it inevitably leads to a strategy of low prices, and does not preclude long term sales, but excludes the possibility of creating high demand. Profitable in this case do tirage works.

For exclusive, sought after and elite want to create (not necessarily actual) set of unique identification firmly secured to the artist /group in the minds of buyers. With a group of artists has yet to provide an opportunity to meet different tastes, and of course increases the effectiveness of advertising.

I may not know enough about this issue, but open any European or American decent gallery and see a full set (just like a box of colored pencils ). Required: abstaktnaya painting, figurative, animals, still lifes, sometimes landscapes. Of course, in a good gallery, all artists - bright personality. But even then - not always. Lot of similarities. Always - a high professional level.
And I would not say that low prices. It depends on what a gallery, where, how many years running. With these "mandatory set of" even an inflection, in my opinion. The identity of the gallery owners sometimes do not consider it. But nothing fundamentally new. Just good and very good artists. And it works.
As for modern art do not know. Generally difficult to imagine who he buys and how can a professional artist (and not at the level of amateur play or what was true 50 years ago) to work in this area, having no grants or sponsors.

a terrible definition of his work ...

If you can buy right now you have to direct, and even bargain, why wait for auction to the buyer?
By this logic, the sellers of bread in the store, too, need to sell it through auction, to increase revenue. And in general all sell everything through auctions. So?

Grain sold at auction.
The auction determines the true value of an artist and do not have to haggle a painter behind by this amount and ve, but knows that bought for this amount he can sell it at auction or in the gallery and a lot of greedy middlemen, and determined the crooks do not need.
Elite is a select, those most qualitative, rather than something that belongs to the elite. The elite usually dump rubbish with a few exceptions.

Serious difference.
Pavel are waiting for comments.

The auction determines the true value of the artist

How true, and you exhibited in Drouot?

When there is no market ruled by crooks.

When there are no crooks - have markets.
Therefore, the markets are no rogues ...

Kochestvennoe cheap does not happen. Quality is something that everyone needs, and therefore price rostet, and hence expensive, but how to determine the price? Only obschedostuppnyh bid. All closed Ypres. "elite" event just a way to extract money from suckers.
Another method which was used Shchukin.

And again we return to the main question of what artists do gallery, especially if you plan overseas exhibitions.
Do we have the seeds of something new that could develop into a new direction, if not entirely different from the international, but at least he of corresponding equal?

Still, I'm not very inclined to base the selection of artists on this sign as direction. This is the second time. First there is new at a individual, then at opredelnnyh conditions it accumulates neophytes, etc.
1) "Russian-poor" - all sold out.
2) Good, great artists, with the school, but without the blinders of tradition and not with the provincial outlook on the world and Time: Russian culture - it is very universalist.
3) MB visionary Art (type crucified ..., sorry, here banid Rybakov his Okozorami )

You know you can buy, I am for this like all the artists work, the case in prices. I have more experience and work for peace. I noticed that foreigners have it easier, though not always profitable, because they are traded.

Not at the auction, and the exchange.

The middle class is not clever inventions and dishonest to say the least people. (This by the way)
Elite is not that komuto like (elite) is very expensive.

(By the way). In countries that are considered developed, the middle class makes up the largest group of the population. The functions of the middle class is traditionally considered the stabilization of society and the reproduction of skilled labor.
Elitist - which means the best. And as we know, between the road and the best can not put an equal sign (this is only expected, but not an axiom).
