Comments on: “How to Choose and Purchase a Work of Art” by Debra Hand https://earthexhibitions.org/media-archive/?p=11063 Thu, 30 Dec 2021 13:59:51 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.0.6 By: Monique Johnson https://earthexhibitions.org/media-archive/?p=11063#comment-366 Thu, 23 Dec 2021 16:32:48 +0000 http://media-archive.blackartinamerica.com/?p=11063#comment-366 Excellent piece clarifying the difference between collecting as an investment and collecting for the love of art. I’ve always collected for the love of a piece and I don’t expect what I’ve purchased to necessarily increase in value…. so if it does, per chance, then I’ll be pleased and surprised.

I recently heard this same discussion on Freakonomics podcast and (as an artist myself) found it very educational…. and a bit sad for the artists. It’s in 3 parts so check it out.
