BUY MY NAME ARTIGARCHS!

I am DAMIEN HIRST! (Diamond skull-best known for
the Art of Selling Art.Did I learn from Salvador Dali
who signed blank pages for his apprentices to daub above?
I am Pablo Picasso ,marketing my wares according to stages
and the gullibility of agents.I am not Van Gogh-destitute,unsold
(unless you count those Japanese boardrooms that burst million dollar Sunflowers!
Even BANKSY ,aware of contradictions,embraces marketry
Poor CHRISTO needs patrons to package this planet river by river
Ai WeiWei under house arrest still trades under his fame name game
You will buy me if my name is Gerard Richter and you are rich and Russian
You will buy me if my name is NEO RAUCH,WENGECHI MUTU,JOHN CURRIN
or if you remember RICHARD PRINCE from the 1970's
If I am dead(or dead famous-you will exchange your loose cash
for a Rembrandt,a Durer,a Gustav Klimt even.
My friend JOHN HOWLEY earned a living painting robots
How prescient! The New Guernica!Facing the buyer with reflection
Daubing in oils what market forces Saatchi and Saatchi to make more millions
This is not art-it is a markup market.Value means more than values.BUY NOW!
and watch as dollar declines,while art becomes (again)-the new collectible..
