I am very disappointed with some of the institutions in Malaysia. I thought an institution would be more than happy to help their students by conveying our requirements to their graduates. Who knows, this may launch the career of another artist in Malaysia. But sadly, this is not happening.

Giacometti, the new Picasso

Art Market Insight reported that on February 3rd, Sotheby's London's evening sale was a time for a new world record. L'Homme qui marche I, Alberto GIACOMETTI's human-size bronze was auctioned £58M (£65M premium included), for a £12M-18M estimate, and is now the most expensive artwork ever auctioned.

Giacometti has superseded Pablo Picasso's Garçon à la Pipe that sold for $93M (£51.8M) on 5 May 2004 at Sotheby's. Giacometti has exceeded his own 2009 total sales revenue with one single auction record.

This sale's global revenue is Sotheby's London's most profitable sale (£146.8M premiums included) and points out to the art market revitalizing in 2010 after a 1 and a half-year crisis.

Introducing Louise Low

Just occurred to me that these paintings (acrylic on canvas) had not been highlighted before. Well worth collecting these works from a very talented young artist. Prices range from RM800 to RM3200

"Towards Renewal and Hope"

Repositioning of Hope

How Art Works can be marketed

I will not be posting any images today.

I will, however, relate what I heard a couple of days ago. Disturbing, not verified but certainly possible.

I was told that there is this art dealer in Malaysia who has images posted online. These are for sale. As soon as an order come through, the dealer will send the piece to China for a copy to be painted. Then the copy as well as the original will be shipped back to Malaysia where the signature is affixed. A couple of artist willingly do that while for others, the dealer will do the honour.

Certainly hope my friends did not buy any of such copies, as was a case in Singapore that was in the news last month where a collector paid a couple of hundred of thousands of USD for some copies. Now that case is in Singapore court pending a hearing.

I certainly would love to hear if such activities are really found in Malaysia.

We, we humbly only sell paintings by artists that we know. Of course we also sell very cheap ones where one does not care who paints the picture that the buyer likes.
