Features: The "China Oil Painting Auction Intelligence" series collects 248 active Chinese contemporary and modern oil painters in the oil painting market in recent years, involving thousands of auctioned works. Arranged in chronological order of the artists' lifespans, the series is compiled into a set of 6 volumes. Compared to similar books on the market, this series has its own format and features. First, it targets the frontline oil painting market, directly selecting auction information from the long-term sales records of dozens of auction houses across the country that is meaningful to investors. This helps investors understand the basic development trajectory and current collection status of the Chinese oil painting market and anticipate collection trends. Second, the series is rich in content, compiling short biographies for each oil painter and introducing their artistic styles. The selected artworks include images, creation dates, materials, dimensions, estimated prices, hammer prices, artist signatures, auction houses, and auction dates—essential auction information for collectors. The series strives for comprehensive, detailed, and visual information, making it highly practical for reference.
"The prosperity of times fosters collecting, while chaos places gold." Since the 1990s, the art auction industry has rapidly risen in the Chinese market, and art collection has expanded from primarily state cultural and institutions to a broader segment of the general public. Particularly in economically developed regions, art investment has become the "second investment" for many private entrepreneurs. However, driven by economic interests, counterfeit and imitation works have proliferated. For collectors and buyers, selecting valuable artworks from a vast and mixed pool of oil paintings and ensuring that the prices align with their true value is challenging. This series is like "snow in the desert."
Considering economic and market factors, sales are expected to perform better in coastal, economically developed regions with higher levels of auction marketization. Key distribution should focus on art bookstores, collection bookstores, and some galleries and auction houses. The companion series "China Calligraphy and Painting Auction Intelligence" is also recommended.
