Today, we visited Gagosian Gallery. There were a lot of art in the form of trashed mobiles, huge and interesting. They made me realize that visual art can be in any form and inspired me to pay more attention to things surrounding me because perhaps I could find or create one type of visual art myself one day.
The sales girl was nice and she talked a lot about her work. I thought clients who purchased this art would mainly put it in their garden or yard since it was too big to be put inside a room. They are metals and hence are very heavy. Personally I think the owner of the art gallery is a bit risk taking. This type of art is not as classy and elegant as paintings or sculptures, so the amount of customers will be less. In addition, by its size and weight, the price of the art work should not be cheap. Thirdly, this type of art is new, hence may not be well recognized like other art work. However, the sales girl said that they were continuously making profits, which made me realize that my knowledge in the field of art was indeed too little. If the entrepreneur decided to start this business, he should have investigated thoroughly already. Hence, in respect to my project, I should ask more about others’ opinions, as many as possible, whether my potential customers are willing to buy, and not limiting to my own personal judgment. I also learnt that I should have courage, hardworking spirit and consistency if I wanted to start a business.
