Starting Your Informal Abstract Art Collection: A Guide to Cost-Effective Online Auctions for Young Collectors.
Are you a young collector looking for an exciting way to start your collection of contemporary art? Look no further than the international online art auction hosted by Chalkwell Auction House, featuring vibrant informal abstract paintings by emerging German artist Anja Stemmer.
But how do you participate in this online auction and snag your favorite piece of art? Here are the steps you need to follow:
Step 1: Study the auction catalog
Before you start bidding, it's important to do your research. Check out the exhibition and auction catalog to find all the relevant information, including the date and time of the auction and the background of the artists and their works.
The 25th edition of the popular international contemporary auction, "Artists on the rise," will be held online on April 18th at 6pm British Standard Time. Don't miss your chance to bid on lot 92, the dynamic square blue informal artwork "Dynamis" by Anja Stemmer, or lot 93, the vibrant abstract informal painting "Wonderbag" of the same artist, also selected by the Chinwe Russel gallery for this auction.
Step 2: Consider your budget
As a young collector, you'll be pleased to know that emerging artists often sell their works for lower prices than established artists. Participating in an online auction of their works can be a cost-effective way to start your collection and potentially increase the value of your pieces in the future. Set a budget before the bidding starts, and stick to it. You can even set a maximum bid for the artwork you're interested in to avoid overspending.
Step 3: Understand the bidding process and place your bid
There are two additional ways to bid in this online auction if you cannot participate live online at the date and time of the event. First, you can place a commission bid, which allows you to put forward the maximum amount you're willing to pay for an item, and a member of the auction house's staff will bid on your behalf during the auction up to the maximum amount you have left on your commission bid. Alternatively, you can book a telephone bid, and a member of staff will call you a few lots before the item you wish to bid on comes to auction. They will place bids on your behalf until you have won the lot or decide not to continue bidding.
In conclusion, participating in an online auction and bidding on the informal artworks by an emerging artist is an exciting and cost-effective way for a young collector to start their informalism art collection. Just remember to study the auction catalog, set a budget, and understand the bidding process. Happy bidding!
