Question
dear frank leeding              2/11/2009
would you please ansuer my question
what is the last price of Jokanda picuture?


Answer
Contemporary artists generally sell for about $1000.
This can vary widely dependently how well known
and "connected" they are. If a galley represents
them, then a signed print (photographic, engraved,
ink-jet) goes for $800 and up with $1000 being a
nice round figure. If they (like me) don't go
thru a particular gallery, there work is goes
for about 1/4 to 1/2 of that. If an artist is
well known, and old (eg, Jasper Johns) then
prices can go from $10_000 and up.

So, i'd say about $350 for a print, and $3500 for
a painting (small) to $5000 (medium). These are
guesses only. Good hunting!

Expertise

I can speak (somewhat "expertly") on the concepts/motivations/aesthetics of "performance art".

Experience

I have performed art in the sense of "performance art" - as opposed to theatre, musical performance, etc. I have been involved in almost all stages of the production of performances with and by other artists. Including site selection/design, classical set creation, sound and lighting design, etc. Briefly performance art is theatre without the script (or at least minimally dependent on script).
