@MichaelDooney_ Honestly there is too much supply and not enough demand. At the top end, don’t try to compete there - cultivate new collectors - ones who aren’t just in it for speculating and want to build something real.
@MichaelDooney_ Was not me @michaeldooney_ although sadly expensive marketing efforts are more likely to cross people’s desks in this busy time. A good advisor can make sure they are looking in less obvious places. The focus on the market by the media and $ prices for young = problem too
.@LisaSchiff: There was no real roadmap [for art advisory] when I started 16 years ago. What I’ve learned is that being an art advisor is about making the art world transparent, and helping people navigate it. #TGBCN2018
.@LisaSchiff: My clients are my collectors not the galleries. I actually protect my collectors from galleries. I’ve been working w/ the same collectors for 15 years to build their collections without imposing my own tastes,but to learn their aesthetic #TalkingGalleries#TGBCN2018
