It has nothing to do with a hypothetical value of the art sold - it's essentially money laundering. This is the sole reason some art is auctioned at such high prices. Tax evasion and the ability to transform capital into an intangible asset until it is converted back into cash. Most of these purchases are never hung on any wall ; they end up in crates stored offshore in massive safes dedicated to this sort of commodity.
As a professional artist who creates art as a living - to feed my children, keep a roof over my head... Who gives FFF###Ck why art collectors collect art and any price?!!! The corporations you kill yourself to go to work for every day does exactly the same thing and worse without the altruistic of collecting art.
Also your spectating is WRONG! The majority of art collectors buy art (st any price) because they really like or are moved by the work then for the investment factor.
Collecting art is no different from people who invest in stocks.
I ask what's your point? Have you spoken to every art collector in the world to know without a doubt that's why the collector art?
So artists are not supposed to make art and earn a decent living to satisfy your unrealistic high horse morals?
@@tiwantiwaabibiman2603 Dream on, dude. And good luck!
Art as an investment? Who'd have thought.
Me. Alot of people buy art souly for investment
😮
AWESOME! Thanks for showing.
Thank you for appreciating 🙌
Amazing works I see❤❤
They all are
As an Art collector and art researcher for 20+ years, I think the more $$ dollars and sales of an Artwork are stressed it degrades and diminishes the Artwork. $ Dollers do not determine great or even good artwork as evident in many Artworks today.
What would you say, determines a great artwork?
@@Ocheja_johnsonI think its The artist's ability to communicate his or her Viewpoint, Aesthetics, Intentions Etc.. that was intended through their artwork and the majority of the audience gets and or understand, not just the elitist few who may or may not get it. Some of the best artwork I have or have seen is not highly valued.
Hello! I love number 3!
I love that too

It really is

Title Picture : Joan Mitchell’s “Sunflowers,” 1990-1991, oil on canvas in two parts sold for $20 million
Help. Contemporary artist. So the top selling art painting, for 2024, at the top art fair of the world, is a huge painting (from the past era) of scribbles of flowers, because the artist managed to acquire a famous name. Please, someone help me & tell me; (a person who is an artist, who recently completed an AFA degree requirements, seeking to develop my own style, who cares deeply about my art effort), what am I supposed to do with this? How do I grasp my place in this current society, current art world, in the face of such an unspeakable state of affairs in the art world?
amazing 👏 🙀
Thank you
Most modern art substitutes weird for quality, narrow isms for scope, and trendy for depth. It also refuses to change or even talk about progressive ideas in art like those that follow
Too many treat art as a marketing scheme. Modern art has become a trendy clique and the art now is mostly over promoted footnotes to greater art that was done 100 years ago. But art is too important to be reduced to a trendy clique.
Post-ism, is art for a new century, not a continuation of last century trends.
1 Mass Market Paintings like Prints. When any art form is mass marketed it enters a golden age. This has happened with books, records, and film. Let's add paintings. Most art is in storage in museum basements. Mass Marketing allows art to tour in copies and allows artists to make royalties on copies.
Why do you think the world gets so excited about a new great book, record, or film; but no one cares about a new great painting? All are mass produced except the painting.
2. End a Century of Isms. Dump the genres and formulas and let all kinds of art be a part of the art world.
3. Shift Emphasis From Trendy to Quality. Shift emphasis from the latest trendy art, to quality art in any style. Just because art is weird does not mean it is great art.
4. Free the Art From Museums and Galleries. Get the art out of the ivory elitist museum and gallery towers and back into the world. Have city art centers open to all artists. Make art that is relevant and communicates with people. Start with the first generation of artists online.
5. Postism is Part of a Bigger Revolution. Postism is part of the bigger art and media revolution out of Dallas, that includes art, music, lit, film, media, and a lot more.
6. Postism online: Online artists are the new wave of art. We had all the isms of last century. Now we have a free for all, of all kinds of artists, that are not sanctioned by any museum or gallery, displaying their work. Out of that comes the next wave and revolution of artists.
Last century the goal was to fit the ism. This century the goal is to do great art - no ism, no boundaries. Fractionalized art then, synchronized art now. Even calling something modern art is a type of ism that separates that art from the art of the past.
The 20th century was a century of experimentation in art. Now in the 21st we can choose from all those styles and / or start one of our own.
Then too if someone devises a way to charge and collect a penny per view on a webpage, that would allow any great artist to get money for their art and have a career without any middlemen.
Duchamp broke ground 100 years ago - but now his clones are just shoveling dirt. Weird art is easy, you put a strip of raw bacon across an expensive violin, but it's not good art.
Join the art revolution and pull the art world out of last century.
Musea since 1992.
I think I might have to interview you soon if you don't mind
@@Ocheja_johnsonCertainly I'm honored, but making it about me is not what I want. Instead interview the ideas step by step. Read each and comment.
I understand. I'll reach out when am ready
Purely exerting emotions and ego as a topic, start from a revolution end up like a disease. Because going unconstrained is highly achievable. The revolution to realize that will become a funny and insignificant part of human history, I guess.
This is the part of the reason why you see art trends rotating so fast. Because if you don't move everyone will copy you..
Sorry, I have problems with the pronounciaton of the speaker...
I have problems with you spelling 'pronunciation'. 😂
Known fact: high priced art is perfect for and is being used ALOT for money laundering.
Honesty,I love your content and seriously, I anticipate it everytime.This is a masterpiece😍...I love what I am seeing ❤️💯
Am touched 😊😊, thank you so much 😊
@MoneyBook-x6s thank you 🙌
great works
They are
4:23 The chair contributed. But that amount of money is obscene. It’s not art anymore, it’s a business. If you have a shrewd agent with connections you can sell used toilet paper in a frame.
The chair contributed 😂😂😂. I agree 👍. Kindly do not forget to subscribe 🙏 🙌
@@Ocheja_johnson Yes, it did. Look what a beautiful visual composition captured by the camera.
Truly beautiful
This is beautiful sir
Thank you sis
they are all really expensive, except for yam story 😁😁
Haha, you don't think yam story is worth the price?
Great video 🤗
Thank you so much 🙌, kindly subscribe to my channel for more exciting videos,
You might want to go read the Emperor's New Clothes
that proves that there are still stupid people with money. it's unpleasant
Yam story?
Then don't watch or be here. People collecting art is not stupid or money wasted.
When or if you're ever wealthy, you can do what you want with your money. ITMT, don't worry about what others do with theirs.
@@tiwantiwaabibiman2603 Oh! Please, don't be sad, you are unique, the smartest, the richest, the most beautiful, and everyone loves you, your opinion is art but get used to the fact that the world is as it is and not as you want.
haha! someone once told me...'if it sells it's art' !
It's Art!
The work starts with excellence and devolves into absolute trash.
And what’s worse is that the best sold for the lowest while the trash sold for the most.
If this doesn’t clearly demonstrate how f-Ed up the world is - I don’t know what else does.
It confusing
Nice
Thank you 🙌
I am thee greatest living artiste'
You are!!!

Am right behind you
Depressing...

@@Ocheja_johnson I better not 🙂
@@larslarsen5414 thanks still
And that folks is how money laundering and legal bribary works.
@@somedude1841 lol, I actually talked about this in the video after this, kindly take a look
none of that disgrace ahs anything to do with art and it is simply an embarassment to even jsut consider calling it thath expensive garbage is what it is
Extremely silly paintings
@@lidacall9722 haha 😂
He's a low talker. Pass.
3:02 Political card played by that lady’s agents. 🙄
Kindly throw more light
@@Ocheja_johnson You can completely lack talent and just throw some paint on a canvass, but a clever agent will make a story (political or not) out of it, so it sells for obscene amounts of money.
Difficult accent…
I thought you said, John Michell." In my tongue we pronounce, Joan Mitchell." $20,000,000 for Joan's painting is A Steal👋🏾🦩
It's actually a steal
AWESOME! Thanks for showing.
Am happy you enjoyed it, thank you
