the PRICE OF ART
 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 aspire to 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 so the artists can 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 are 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 famous
artist's paintings.
 No
different than any market, a work of art is a commodity for which a
market is created and maintained by financially interested parties.
The market value of the art item is derived from its exchange value,
the price a buyer pays for the artwork.
Individual works of art 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.
Auction prices cannot be assumed to fairly represent the artworks
value. You have to develop your eye for quality and use your own
sense of art value.
Prices of art fluctuate and may differ by significant factor and
vary from item to item even by the same artist and size, in the
prevailing opinion of a collector. No two objects 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 - see
appraisal
guidelines.

fakes
Be
vigilant
Caution is important when buying fine art.
To avoid
costly mistakes, we
encourages collectors to
buy artworks
of
impeccable
provenance
from dealers and galleries that deals with the
artist.
Verification, inclusion in
publications, is an absolute essential, ideally leading all the way
back to the
artist.
Bargain
hunting clouds the judgment, exposing
susceptible shoppers
to unscrupulous sellers that offer artworks that are misrepresented
and of questionable provenance including bogus art.
By all means shop around and compare prices, quality
and provenance, as it alters price by significant factor.
Judge each piece for its own merits. However,
too great preoccupation with the price is often
counter-productive.
Some buyers aim to
save themselves a commission or
may aspire to spot a 'Sleeper’, a
Misattributed
Masterpieces That Earn Millions
instead may
acquire a
fake art.
A sleeper is defined as an artwork that has been undervalued and
mislabeled due to an expert's oversight and consequently is
undersold at auction. Accordingly, the art object is introduced into
the public art market under a wrong label.
What is
fake art? Art forgery is creating and selling of artworks which
are falsely credited to other, usually more famous artists.

Art purchase as a legitimate tax
deduction
TAX
DEDUCTION
Tax advantages are changed regularly, to
satisfy yourself please seek professional assistance to check the
latest details.
Work environment
requires artworks on premises
to be attractive,
that
includes business and home office.
The addition of the artwork to any office space makes the environment
healthier and more attractive.
Beyond enhancing almost any type of decor, artworks can also become a viable investment.
Art
purchases
may
qualify
to bring Tax deductions including
some
business expense
expenditure.
A business-owner can spend reasonable
amounts of money on artworks for the workplace and in many cases can expect to
take advantage of a tax write off.
Common tax
deduction when Buying & 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.
A Loan To purchase
A LOAN may 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.
