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, involving thousands of auctioned works. Arranged in chronological order of the artists' lifetimes, the series is compiled into a set of 6 volumes. Compared to similar books in 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 state of collection in the Chinese oil painting market and anticipate collection trends. Second, the series is rich in content, providing short biographies for each oil painter and introducing their artistic styles. The selected works include images, creation dates, materials, dimensions, estimated prices, hammer prices, artist signatures, auction houses, and auction dates—essential auction intelligence for collectors. The series strives for comprehensive, detailed, and visual information, making it highly practical for reference. "Prosperity breeds collection, chaos stores gold." Since the 1990s, the art auction industry has rapidly risen in the Chinese market. Art collection has gradually expanded from primarily national cultural and institutions to a broader range of individuals across all social strata. 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 a challenging task. This series is like "snow in the desert." Due to economic and market factors, regions along the coast with higher marketization levels of auctioned works are expected to perform better in sales. 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.
