Fact is the opposite and I like to quote in this context from the latest Contemporary Art Market Report published by Artprice.com (CEO Thierry Ehrmann): …”Art is not exclusively reserved…

An exhibition by International Artists Curated by Rolf Goellnitz Blue is the overwhelming “favorite color” of most people around the world.

And than I thought – well monetary value is not everything, maybe some of them are at least to be found in the Top 100 of most exhibited artists in the world, I…
