Collector
 New collectors benefit from acquiring a
few pieces they like and would enjoy
having in their homes. In the
contemporary art world, the collector
who holds on to a piece tends to be
more successful than the one who buys
and sells quickly.
New collectors can also give themselves
a competitive edge by seeking out
photography or original works on
paper, though aesthetic appeal should
remain a priority. Instead of thinking
about art as a financial vehicle,
collectors should look at potential
acquisitions with a critic's eye and seek
out creative potential.
