Welcome to our weekly art collector Blog/Newsletter; For the Week of January 15th, 2011
At Art Collector Blog we list information about the visual artists whose works we own/sell, listed below. The artists' news, reviews, auctions & auction results, latest market prices, exhibitions and related stories. We search the web daily.
- This issue covers pictures and details of the works our artists in upcoming auctions.
- We have also begun to catalogue the various works of each artist to enable you find the art you are looking for by the name of the work. The first Catalog (Index) completed is that of Marc Chagall at "Chagall Price Index".
- News about our artists is missing in this issue, but will be added during the week.
