It’s really easy to start collecting art – buy a piece that you like, and then start building a collection. How do you hunt for good art deals? Here are some tips:
• Visit art galleries – the more you visit, the better. The gallery staff would be more than happy to give you advice. You do not have to buy anything, so don’t be pressured. Make it known to them that you are looking, but that you are not in a hurry.
• Put your name in the gallery’s mailing list. This way, you get invited to special events and openings.
• Are there nonprofit art centers in your area? Join them if you have time. You will meet other collectors here and get free advice.
• Watch our for free museum lectures. Curators sometimes conduct them for students and visitors. Ask if you can join.
• Subscribe to a good art magazine, or buy art history books. The brand new ones can be a bit pricey, so hit second-hand bookstores if you are on a budget.
