Art Industry is a mess

How does one sell a collection or learn how to? It's nearly impossible without connections.

It's money laundring, and yes you need connections.

Worth of modern art = monetary premium on opinions formed by the upper class
Quantification of class priviledge

this user knows whats up. They key to unraveling the whole mess is to realize the one holding the artwork is the person who is owed the money (for political favor, scam, etc). The pic of the can of soup is just like a public marker which signifies "ive helped some important people out and they will pay me once I auction this off".

So, what do I do with a collection of over 1000 paintings? from WWII?

try craigslist

i used to date this cokehead escort in NYC that new some 'famous artist' in miami and paid $30k for this shitty ass painting. I met the lady and she was an obvious fraud and scammer. Anyway a few years later and looked her up and she'd been arrested for swindling some dead doctor's estate out of cash.

Stay away from that crowd of phonies user.

But I am paying a shitload for my grandfather's archive and I have no idea who to get in touch with and the paintings are decent.

>being this uncultured
You are probably just trash that can't even meet with anyone in a serious way. No one buys stuff from people in board shorts.

I’ve already told you in another thread. Use valuemystuff.com. They have the connections and are trustworthy. Google their ceo.

post some highlights on here.

>its a 'peons without any artistic conviction claim its money laundering' episode
Stupid poor peons

Art is money washing.

You will not get rid of them for a dime in the next 50 years.

I think one of the strongest paintings collection could be the Sant'Anna di Stazzema massacre.

Nazis burned alive people one after one trying to gather information about partisans.
This is the Priest of the church and the baby found. Supposedly the first victims, knowing the patterns of how people were threatened.

Sorry for the low quality I got it from a textbook.
He has more happy things about sea and carnival.
I could sell them very cheaply in a heart-beat but I would feel so guilty.

So all the painting where made by your grandfather during or around ww2 era? Like this one already.

>No one buys stuff from people in board shorts.
unless is Ashley Bickerton or kevin ancell

>t. americans
you guys know us yuropoors also lurk here, right? it's pretty sad when you NYC/LA faggots try to pretend they know culture. your suburban populations you mock so much are unironically more sophisticated than you, from first-hand experience

Alright, John Podesta

Not everything was made around WW2, he was in a concentration camp and did not talk with anyone about it and produced nothing for over a year if I do not recall. He died when I was three so I can't know much, I only remember his face.
My mother did an instagram but it's terrible if you compare the two

I think he is not untouched by photography or cinema and he did not try to go for realism or figurative or conceptual controversies.

The picture are terrible, if we sell cheaply the market will never recognize it because it's based on perceived worth and if we don't sell the cost of the huge archive will collapse on us in a couple of years.

I need to see one good and pay for advertising the others.

None of this is money laundering though by the traditional definition. It's just hyping utter dogshit up into idiots paying big money for it. It helps to have a good story like some poor nigger from the hood was some "mastah grafitzee artist!" so guilty white liberals will pay top dollar.

Triple checked and interesting read

I think he is untouched by photography*

My English it's not too good, it's 11 PM and I am feeling tired.

I think culture is kind of overestimated, I have a huge archive on literature and old cinema, over 30TB, all based on academic standards.
I noticed that people suggest to read more classics, when it's not the correct thing to do initially.
They do not know that classics require interpretation and big grammar textbooks on the old version of the language.
There are not proper translations for certain words, even in contemporary literature when complex the translation is wrong in terms of collocations, for example Ulysses.

It all comes down to collocation in linguistics, it's a fairly new concept in EU.

The usual "is a car fast or rapid"?
But with less frequent words.

Got some great ones! Talented man. I would really contact the team of valuemystuff, patrick has an amazing team and many connections. Really love the painting of the women in yellow you sent. Got a price in mind? Is it preserved well? Looks like it got some cracks.

Depending on the size and quality of the technique.
Signed prints could go as low as 100 euros.
Sketches with pencil could go as low as 200
Complete drawings could go as low as 1000.
Complete paintings could go as low as 5000 if tiny, 10.000 if middle and 20.000 if it's an entire wall.

He worked in a workshop and made very big paintings.

You could try listing a few on saatchi, just to test the market and interest. Good luck! Really one of the better posts on Jow Forums for me.

You think Saatchi is the best?

I do not have a presentation but I need to take better pictures and to make a website.

I was thinking starting up a tiny company based on selling WWII paintings, with a 10% going to extreme poverty of poor people victims of warfare.

My grandpa's collections alone would be so big they could fuel the company for over 10 years if it started selling.
At least if I sell cheap I don't feel guilty about it.

They might not be the best but they have the biggest audience. Also a big usa audience (like it or not: these people love to spend money). Your idea sounds nice marketing/selling will be super hard. Current art market: super famous old stuff (carravagio / ruebens...) or super modern stuff like rothko. There’s not really a big market inbetween.

its a really interesting story and could be exactly what some brokers/galleries could be interested in. "Finding" folk art is a big thing for the side of the community that isnt a bunch of money launderers.

research and reach out to galleries and brokers who focus on wwii. Dont use a website, communicate in person

Mainly money laundering and tax elusion (they are stored in free ports). Networking matters a lot. You will be better off renting them to galleries for display, and, if they become popular, you could eventually sell them.

You mean physically going to world's art galleries? I can't really afford it

nice work user.
price and dimension?

and regarding art.
some user shared some lovely Art collection lately:
mega.nz/#F!rVcExIbB!VN9alzay0OrctggvEn1DUg

Death of Don Innocenzi Lazeri, 1963
oil on canvas
cm 100x70
inches 39.3x27.5

Price for these dimensions would be minimum 10 thousand, but since this is in a collection and it is among the best of the collection, you can expect it to nearly double.

There are multiple owners, but expect not less than 15k and not more than 25k

When Spike Lee made Miracle at St. Anna, we were pretty puzzled.
Things went differently and everything was a lot more gruesome.
