[Buscador]

Сообщение от Seriy

1. Does the artist provide a meeting place, workshop (and if no?), In the apartment (and it is convenient to all?), In the gallery (and who will pay for services gallery ?)...
2. To what amount of the transaction can meet in the subway (the subway, in the car)?
3. Should a meeting occur inevitably during the day? In order that the buyer had no doubt that the next morning the picture will get other colors in the daylight? And if the buyer comfortable night?
4. Should an artist and as a packed schedule on paper? canvas on a stretcher? Cardboard?
5. Since some amount of the transaction is to issue a certificate of authenticity to the picture?
6. What amounts should be a contract of sale specifying the rights and responsibilities?

After these issues more you begin to understand that the artist engaged in self-realization is contraindicated ...
I can not imagine a customer who buys the work in the car at the subway. This is reminiscent of Soviet times, and trade under the floors of various difitsitami ...

7. Obligated to sign an artist all his work on the front side, on the back?

As a signature pattern, the artist must sign his work, if it leaves its author ... And the signature must be on the front side.

8. Is there a refund picture? On what conditions?

A self-respecting artist always pick up your product. A self-respecting buyer - would never return the purchased work (otherwise do not understand the purpose of purchase and qualification of the buyer). The exception, perhaps, may be cases where the work is done badly and begins to crumble. Then, as I think you have a right to exchange or return to work ...

happened several times. And in the cafe, too, was the case. If an artist from another town and brought the work, then have no idea how to invite the buyer to the workshop.

Dealers also bought in the car, and that the most interesting thing they had not seen the work, and take on the fact that they brought, because they knew that if you do not take, in the future may be nothing to get. (It was a lot of time in Hungary)

And as for the return ..... if you buy via the Internet, it is usually live work do not see a photo often does not pass all the colors. Therefore, if they want to return, you need to take back. We write, 5 days for inspection period.

Yes, more, saith the buyer how to deal with the picture. That is, protected from the ingress of water and direct sunlight, then the work will continue for a long time.

Buscador, of course, trade is a separate profession, but life is that most beginners, low-budget artists sell themselves. And in 99%of cases they do not have his studio in Moscow. Of course, when the cost of painting - ten thousand dollars, then you have a workshop, entourage, dealer, gallery. When Multi base price in rubles for the job - it's all pointless as the lace on the cup ..

So true.
You dealer, came to the artist in the studio to buy. Your goal: buy and sell expensive.
Chosen, struck a bargain, paid for, took and left.
Where is the place of return?
Not able to sell more-Pick up a lavender, uncle this and give me back the money?
So it looks like?

There was a case from an acquaintance of the artist: I bought a dealer in his work, godika 3 was trying to sell, not vyshlo.Nekotorye vsetaki prodal.Priehal of the artist's studio, and with an angry expression of horror, demanded in exchange for higher quality work more razmera.U artist porsnulos feeling of guilt, and he has changed, and then not once regretted that he took money for work ...

And what have the dealer? It was about just buyers. And what kind of dealer, the second requires something? The dealer must agree.
And in general, as correctly observed Inside, they talked about the ritual. Here, let's talk - who have a ritual?

And still this question: the dealer sells or the buyer is buying? "It would be interesting to discuss. And useful.

About the ritual of selling the paintings have never heard.

"Ritual" is probably not a very good term for this case.
It is better to speak of "tradition" or an "established practice".
