Seven Tips for Beginning Collectors
It is quite difficult to start collecting photographs. You have to get information about the art market, you should get in contact with experts (dealers, gallery owners, artists) to be able to choose the artworks that best fit your interests and to preserve them well. So there has been a panel at Aperture Foundation's gallery about the first steps to creating a photography collection. "Photography seems like a smaller field of dealers and auction houses. As overwhelming as it is, it's easier to negotiate and, at least in the past, the financial consequences weren't so huge", said W.M. Hunt of the Hasted Hunt Gallery. At the panel, Hunt talked to beginning collector Gael Zafrany, who works at Charles Schwartz Ltd., preserving and creating museum and personal collections; longtime collector David Kronn; Modern Art Obsession blogger Michael Hoeh; and designer Todd Oldham about their experiences as fledgling collectors.
