BOOOOOORRIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNGGG !!!

One of the things that annoys me most is art critics and journalists who seem to go out of there way to write long, drawn out articles in mainstream publications such as newspapers that sound more like an in depth diagnosis of a medical condition by a neurosurgeon than an interesting, entertaining piece of writing. It baffles me why art critics and journalists continue to regurgitate mind numbing technical critiques which express incoherent and arrogant opinions which seem to me to be more of a excercise in self gratification or an attempt to provide proof of an extensive technical vocabulary than coherent, applicable writing on visual art.

It has, and continues to be my mission to bring the fun back into art and make people want to read about and experience art as opposed to being exposed to intimidating, boring and incoherent ramblings by insecure, out of touch journos.

Onwards and upwards!!!

Welcome to Art Market Guru blog

Well hello to everyone out there in world wide web land, my name is Nicholas Forrest and this is my new blog. You may have visited my other blogs at http://www.artforprofits.com and http://www.artmarketblog.com which are my more "serious" blogs about how to invest in art but I have decided that I wanted another blog where I could basically say whatever I wanted so here it is. You can check out this particular blog at http://www.artmarketguru.com which makes it a bit easier to find.
I will endeavour to tell you a bit more about myself over the next few posts and give you a big more of an idea of what I do and how I came to do it.

On a separate issue I just booked a trip to the UK and France for July, WOO!!!, which I am very excited about. I will be spending most of my time visiting galleries and soaking up the history and culture of Europe but I will also find some time to indulge in some of my other passions namely car racing. I will also be doing some study with Christies which will be awesome and will give me a chance to get an insiders view to the European art market.

In the mean time why don't you check out my new art investment video that I just did!!!
