I always appreciated Saatchi's interest in and support of emerging artists. I am, however, a bit sad to know that he seems to buy their work, thereby giving them status, then as the prices go up he sells them, and then repeats the process. I guess that the dreamer in me hoped that he loved and lived with the work and kept it. Ah well...
Wow! This was an excellent, informative, entertaining video...outstanding!
I really appreciate that! Wasn't sure if anyone was going to like this or not!
@@christopherwestpresents You had some great advice for the new collector.
Great video, with so much information and ideas.
Thanks so much John! I wasn’t sure what everybody would think about this one.
Thanks for another great video. Your passion and knowledge for the arts really shows.
So happy to hear you say that! I was worried no one would like these Q&A sessions.
Same...my favorite artist once said "Avec une pomme je veux étonner Paris" !
Was that Magritte?
@@christopherwestpresents Close!! And very tied into the quote …”with an Apple I will astonish Paris’!”
Chris, could you make a video on Masterworks.. your thoughts and take on it
I do need to do another Q&A soon. I’ll try to remember to touch on this. It’s hard though because there’s just not much data yet.

And sadly - he’s not the only one that does this!
