Thanks, Moriah. Your videos are always informative. I'm definitely an enthusiastic collector, based on your definition. I'll be at Frieze Los Angeles tomorrow. Are you going?

[@DearGlorywithMoriahAlise]

I missed it this year! How was it?

@@DearGlorywithMoriahAlise I enjoyed it. It was big, of course, and that can be overwhelming for me, but I made it through! My favorite piece was a very intricate collage done by Brazilian artist Vik Muniz. It was a rendering of Andrew Wyeth's "Christina's World". Normally renderings of other artists' works is not my thing, but this was done in a process that I have never seen before. Truly masterful work. Collage can be very unsophisticated and sometimes "crafty" but this is the most impressive, delicate collage work I have ever seen. I don't believe there is anything like it. There were some Ming Smith photos. I have never seen her work IRL. A photo of Phylis Hyman was particularly interesting to me, as it was a mixed-media piece with paint. I liked it a lot. There were also some nice Nan Goldin photos. I loved the work by a young artist named Chase Hall. I had never heard of him before but perhaps you have. He focuses on black-surfer culture, using coffee to stain the canvas in a way I have never seen. Kind of like batik, I guess. It is really cool and I, having grown up in Los Angeles (and had a dreadlocked, surfer boyfriend who looked like he could have stepped out of one of those paintings) identified with it. I like so much that it celebrates black joy, and in an arena that we are not used to seeing black people in. There are actually a lot of black surfers, I lived in Marina del Rey for many years and can tell you that black surfers are not unusual. I would collect his work, and I am not normally focused on figurative work (abstract is my personal thing). I think Chase is an artist to watch. There was a nice Mark Bradford piece on display, smaller than what I am used to seeing from him. It would fit nicely on my dining room wall! I would definitely collect him if I had that kind of money. This man, Greg Breda, someone I have never heard of but you may know of, had some beautiful pieces. I thought his stuff really stood out of the tsunami of contemporary, black portraiture we see of late. He uses these broad brushstrokes and has a really muscular approach to it that I like a lot. His pieces have a kind of "movie still" feeling to them as if you are catching a moment in mid-time. I also loved Narsiso Martinez's ink, gouache and charcoal portraits of immigrant Mexican farmworkers done on fruit boxes. They were so powerful to me. I don't know if he draws over photos or what because they are very realistic, but whatever his process is, it's working, and I am a fan of making beautiful art using cheap materials like cardboard. I must say that there was a lot of work at Frieze that left me scratching my head wondering "who wants this in their house?"..... but "art" is in the eye of the beholder and the hand of the artist. Personally, I like to look at work that makes me feel good. I know that's pretty basic but art has an affect on me, and I like that affect to be positive and set me up for a good day, not something that is going to depress me first thing in the morning. Public art or art in a place of business is, for me, where I like to see work that might get me angry or sad.... I don't want to have to live with that day-to-day. I like your channel. I have learned a lot.... You are very beautiful and I enjoy seeing your smiling face. Keep up the good work.

I’m a causal collector if I’m a collector at all. I purchased a Richard Hunt sculpture created at the end of his life. I have a friend who encouraged me to buy it as his work would increase in value exponentially due to his passing. I would love to get your opinion. Please advise.

Tumultuous information tremendous understanding what pleases ones eyes may not please another but sure we have to have some idea about art these collectors have a strong commitment / collect paintings that infuse beauty in your home / yes thank you 😊

awesome stuff. where do flippers fall within those three categories?

[@ericswain4177]

Great video but pigeonholing is a bit constraining as collecting and the Art world is a journey and one may or may not shift their position at any given time, I know I have. Being too rigid in one aspect can be ok but also limiting in another and closing one off from the benefits of another. I have been collecting and researching Art for 20+ years and find that to benefit the most from collecting etc... one may want to experience and immerse oneself in any avenue of the art world and find one's place or starting point. Even trying or becoming an Artist, I did just that.

You seem to imply the level of knowledge and investment goes hand in hand. I'd seriously doubt that..

Well, what are your thoughts? Other than doubt?
