About PRICE OF ART
 How does art get its value?
Living artists
set fair prices on their creations
individually by the
merit (it is little
to do with the costs of materials and labour required in making). By
pricing their work,
artists
can
make a living with their creations and
create unbiased market
values.
Once an artwork is get to the hands of the first buyer, its
commercial value is largely determined by the principle of
supply and demand, but it can be managed by the gallery the
artist is represented or the artist's primary dealer.
By doing the gallery can participate in the pricing works by
artists gallery represents.
Galeria Aniela supports
the artist's prices
(we
represent)
for the artists make
living with their creations.
When you
purchase
at Galeria Aniela
you get a work of art of impeccable
provenance that is
genuine, original and unique.
Artworks of late artists
is traded at individual prices in
the prevailing art collector’s opinion.
History play the essential role of supplying attribution,
establishing opinion and authenticating what is offered on the
market - see
prices paid for famous
artist's paintings.
 Auction prices cannot be assumed to truly represented the
secondary market value
fairly.
The moral is that you have to develop your eye for quality and be
guided by your own sense of appropriates market values.
A work of art is a commodity for which a market is created and
maintained by financially interested parties. No different than any
other market. The market value of the art item is derived from its
exchange value, the price a buyer pays for the artwork.
Individual works are traded at individual prices, the value
placed on one artwork by
the World Art Market may differ from the critical value placed on the
similar artwork or the same work at different time and location.
The price of work of outstanding rarity and quality can exceed all
reasonable expectations.
Prices of art fluctuate and may differ by significant factor,
prices vary from item to item
even by the same artist and size, in the prevailing opinion of a collector.
No two object are exactly the same, prices and values vary being
particular to each object and other factors which all affect prices
- such as the artist's standing, the artwork's condition,
provenance,
and exhibition history.
Also other seemingly
unrelated elements may affect the artwork value
-

art appraisal guidelines.

Tax
advantages are changed regularly and to
satisfy yourself
seek
professional assistance to
check the latest information for
tax deduction
and
art investment.
Work place is
an environment that requires artworks on premises
to be attractive,
this
includes business and home office locations.
The addition of the artwork to any office space makes office environment
healthier and more attractive.
Beyond enhancing almost any type of decor, artworks can be also viable and
profitable investment.
Art
purchases
can bring
Tax deduction and
also some expenditures can qualify for a tax
deduction.
In many cases an art purchase can be considered a business
expense or a write off. A typical business owner can spend reasonable
amounts of money on artwork for the workplace and expect to be able to
take advantage of a comparable tax write off.
Common tax
deduction when Buying and selling art
There are instances in which a person who buys or sells
artwork can take advantage of tax deductions and write offs.
The most commonly used 'write offs' that relates to artworks involves a
deduction when a person sells a work of
art
that has dropped in value since the initial purchase. The seller may
qualify for a 'tax deduction' or 'write off' based on the difference in
value of the artwork.
Business tax advantages are changed regularly so verify it with your
accountant.
Loan
in art purchase can reduce Tax bill
A LOAN can reduce your tax bill, the
interest of your loan is deductible also, the Expenses related to the
loan like (advertising, agent commission, improvement, cleaning, repair
restoration, framing, insurance, legal fees on the purchase as well as
the sale, travel expenses).
If
you decide to rent your art then your expenses may be claimed from the
date the art investment first became available for rent.
Interior Design
If you are involved in
interior design and you purchase artwork with the idea of using it on
behalf of a client, that purchase normally will be considered a
legitimate business expense. Therefore, you likely will be able to write
off or deduct the cost of such artwork from your profits. Keep in mind
that when you use the artwork in a decorating project, or when you sell
the artwork to a client, any money you earn for that sale above and
beyond what you paid for the artwork originally will be considered
income for your business.
Although there are ways in
which artwork can be used as a means to obtain a tax write off or
deduction, the primary focus of purchasing, selling or trading in art
cannot be tax-related. There are ways in which purchasing, holding and
ultimately selling art can be a solid investment plan. However, in the
majority cases, significant tax write off associated with art ownership
is not an essential element of that type of investment.
