How to invest USD 3000-10000

[Синица]

It is interesting to expert opinion, but I think that the established names, bought today for this money may not be worth more in five years. Objectively, it all depends on the overall situation in the market in the economy. And the current fashion. Currents fashion not predictable (if you are building it yourself is not), you can place bets and win or lose. And the cost of high-quality art should follow the general economic situation, and it is hoped that grow. It remains to understand what is really art, but what a profanation. (This is just not interfere with the expert's opinion). And with the "names" the same thing. Everything Else - gambling. They can play, if you want.
And you can love it, in that "investiruesh" and enjoy the possession, even if the market has not grown.

In my opinion, this is true for contemporary art and does not extend to names, the time-tested. Nor can Brueghel, Munch or Pimenov suddenly lose in price. I can assume that the dollar or, say, the yen lost 70%of its value after five years, but then surely there is some other unit, which will be the measure of value. It may be, for example, the Chinese yuan, or even the number of sheep (in a sad version of the crisis), but having some number of works of art, you can always be confident in the future. (If, of course, you once chose the correct option).

Agree. You can invest in new names can be very "untwist" the name, you can even at the peak of interest in the artist out selling his paintings, bought 5 years ago very cheap.
But invest, in my opinion, should be in the artist's paintings, tested vremenem.qwerty rights.

Class! Net impressionism (in the classical sense)

Friends, this is NOT impressionism, well, one must capture the difference! Generally clear boundaries in the styles there, but it is an imitation of postimpressionist vezhe ....
  In the classical sense, Impressionism in B. Gremitskikh ....

I say "bought with the money." Nor can Brueghel, Munch or Pimenov now cost 3000 10000dol

I gave first came to mind names to indicate the direction of possible investments: respectively, in the old masters, Expressionism and Russian art of the last century. This could well be other names, and other areas, but not contemporary art. However, for the money it is possible to buy Munch's lithographs and, if lucky, graphics Pimenov.

A few pages ago I wrote about the possibility to invest
3 000-10 000 in contemporaries. Overall response opinion - too risky.
And yet it was felt that this money can buy
some 4B.
But I wrote about the artists, invaluable and underappreciated
  investors, with ratings of 2A and 3A.
These artists are forced to sell paintings
at prices far below even a sort of "fair market"
(heh-heh, eh-eh-eh)
and therein lies their short-term investment resource
(In the sense that long run at a loss is still impossible).
But long-term vision for 2A and 3A at all obvious.
Although I do not rule out that the original "score" (in the sense
"Rating") Art - Collectors case, rather than investors.
The interest of collectors to this category of artists just
quite high.

Can you give an example of undervalued artists with 3A and 2A? I think they have all appreciated. Although there are exceptions. Here let Skorikov Yuri Ivanovich (1924-1994 gg.) Honored Artist of the RSFSR. What's interesting - in the old, 10th edition, he 3B, and the last, the 15th he had somehow been 4B. Normal painting with a southern flair. If you want a color Kuban, it is something you need. But I would not buy it, something lacking in his paintings. Rather recognition, many of these artists.

Invaluable artists rated 3A can not be. The very top that says that markets are in demand.
A much about 2A and say nothing.

qwerty, I advocated only contemporary art, I mean, for so little money is unlikely to buy acknowledged as a masterpiece, the test of time. And inexpensive graphics Pimenov (eg, pictures) can also grow in the price or even fall in the general situation.
And then, to invest, it is necessary, in my opinion, fine selection of quality items. And on whom to rely - on your own taste or expert advice - the choice of the investor.
Here the investor and asked a specific question to experts: "where to invest?".

For example, how do you think, sketches Stozharov (rating, I think, high) value 5000dl. will cost more in 5 years?
Or drawings Pimenov (watercolors are unlikely to fall to a 5tys.)?
