Art Dealing

Art dealing involves acting as a mediator or intermediary in the buying and selling of artworks. Art dealers band together artists, collectors, galleries, and buyers, often providing expertise, valuation, and authentication. They may acquire artworks to resell later at a profit or facilitate transactions for clients. Effective art dealing requires knowledge of the art market, trends, and authenticating artworks, often involving negotiations and building relationships. It's a profession that balances artistic appreciation with business acumen, ensuring the provenance, condition, and value of artworks are accurately represented to support informed transactions.
