The dynamics of the high end art market..., by searchandrescue on May 24, 2011 8:27:42 GMT 1,
Thanks for posting hlarmy, found this particularly interesting.
Edited from Prospero in The Economist May 17th 2011,
"The Warhol market is intriguing. There is clearly genuine demand for the "American Picasso". Yet the lots that are underbid by dealers or go from dealer-collector to dealer-collector inflate prices and create the appearance of trading volume in a way that is hard to track...... Whatever the case, it would appear that collectors and dealers with an affinity for Warhol have a clear sense of the auction room as a marketing platform."
Edited from Abigail R. Esman in Forbes May 15th 2011
"Yet somehow, when social prestige is at stake โ and letโs face it, in certain circles, thatโs what owning a Warhol self-portrait is all about โ perfectly intelligent, savvy investors behave like total idiots."

The dynamics of the high end art market..., by hlarmy on May 24, 2011 9:30:54 GMT 1, The art market fascinates me almost more than art itself; and the more I learn about it the more I realise how fickle, risky and very hard to predict it is; it's almost like the World's most exclusive fraternity!

I've read it 3 times now; and feel the need to start it again soon as it's been a few years since I last read it A very good book...
Cheers Mike
