DESCRIPTION

Menzies Art Brands Outstanding results since 1998. The premier brand Deutscher~Menzies conducted its first auction in April 1998. Founded by Rod Menzies and Chris Deutscher, Deutscher~Menzies' arrival on the local stage was perceived as a bold and brave step that would see them compete with a long established Australian art auction scene. At the time many commentators questioned the company's ability to survive its first year.

Menzies Art Brands Outstanding results since 1998. The premier brand Deutscher~Menzies conducted its first auction in April 1998. Founded by Rod Menzies and Chris Deutscher, Deutscher~Menzies' arrival on the local stage was perceived as a bold and brave step that would see them compete with a long established Australian art auction scene. At the time many commentators questioned the company's ability to survive its first year. At the end of 2006 the company was restructured and under the leadership of Executive Chairman Rod Menzies, Menzies achieved their most successful sales on record. In 2007 Menzies Art Brands doubled their 2006 turnover, making it the most successful year in the company's history. Menzies remains committed to securing the highest quality art works and presenting them in outstanding catalogues. Our dedicated team of art specialists and support staff, together with our new integrated approach to marketing has reinforced our dominant position as Number 1 Market Leader in Australian Art Auction Sales.

How to Select Works in an Art Auction

Selecting artwork in an auction is not easy. Usually, art lovers purchase artwork from various galleries, but you can also get stunning and impressive ones can only be found in art auctions. So, here are some steps that can help you in selecting a beautiful piece in art auctions.

Find an Attractive Piece of Art

Firstly it is important that you find a piece of art that attracts you. You can opt for searching online through various art pieces that are going to be displayed during the upcoming auction, or navigate through various art pieces directly at the event.

Verify if the Art Piece you like is Real

After choosing the art piece you like, it is important that you know whether it is real or not. Communicate with the art seller and gain knowledge about the art piece to determine if it’s real. Ask about the history of art and which artist created it. 

Place the bid

After assuring that the art piece is real, the next step is to place your bid. Do make sure that you do not exceed the amount you are willing to pay. If you can’t attend the auction, you can even place an absentee bid, in which you can obtain a catalogue online or through fax. You can also opt for telephone bidding with a representative on the other side making the bid on your behalf.So by following these steps you can best ensure that the art piece you choose suits your style and also determine whether the art piece is real or not.
