Features: "China Oil Painting Auction Intelligence" series, which collects 248 Chinese contemporary and modern oil painting masters who have been most active in the oil painting auction 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 on the market, this series has its own format and characteristics. First, the series is aimed at the first-tier oil painting market, directly selecting auction information that is meaningful to investors from the long-term auction data of dozens of auction houses across the country, helping investors understand the basic development context and current collection status of the Chinese oil painting market, as well as predicting collection trends. Second, the series is rich in content, compiling short biographies for each oil painter and introducing their artistic styles. The selected works include detailed auction information such as images, creation dates, materials, dimensions, estimated prices, prices, author signatures, auction houses, and auction dates, which are valuable for collectors. This series strives for comprehensive, detailed, and visual information, making it highly practical and reference-worthy. "Prosperity breeds collection, chaos stores gold." Since the 1990s, the art auction industry has rapidly risen in the Chinese market, and art collection has gradually expanded from primarily national cultural and institutions to a broader range of 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 emerged in large numbers. For collectors and buyers, how to select valuable artworks from a vast and mixed array of oil paintings at auction, ensuring that the auction prices align with their true values, is like receiving "snow in the cold." Due to economic and market factors, regions with higher levels of marketization, such as coastal economically developed areas, are expected to perform better in sales. Key distribution should focus on art bookstores, collection bookstores, and some galleries and auction houses. The series also includes "China Calligraphy and Painting Auction Intelligence," which can be recommended together. This book includes the auction information of oil paintings by artists such as He Daqiao, Deng Jianjin, Wang Yigang, Luo Fahuai, Zheng Yi, Duan Jianwei, Liu Yaming, and Yue Minjun.
