Features: "China Oil Painting Auction Intelligence" series, which includes 248 active Chinese contemporary and modern oil painters in the oil painting market in recent years, covering thousands of auctioned works. Arranged in chronological order of the artists' lifespans, the series is compiled into 6 volumes. Compared to similar books on the market, this series has its own format and characteristics. 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 context and current collection status of the Chinese oil painting market and predict future trends. Second, the series is rich in content, featuring biographies of each oil painter and introductions to their artistic styles. The selected works include images, creation dates, materials, dimensions, estimated prices, actual prices, artist signatures, auction houses, and auction dates—essential auction information for collectors. The series strives for comprehensive, detailed, and visually engaging content, making it highly practical for reference.
"Prosperity breeds collection, chaos hoards gold." Since the 1990s, the art auction industry has rapidly risen in China. Art collection has expanded from primarily involving national cultural and institutions to encompassing a broad range of individuals across society. Particularly in economically developed regions, art investment has become a "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 can be challenging. This series is like "coal in snow."
Given economic and market factors, regions along the coast with higher levels of auction marketization are expected to perform better in sales than other areas. Key distribution should focus on art bookstores, collectible bookstores, and some galleries and auction houses. The companion series "China Calligraphy and Painting Auction Intelligence" is also recommended.
