thoughts on Art Basel

My name is Annamaria Capicchioni and  am an Italian American who lives partly in Miami beach and in Italy and I think that this enables me to get a  broader view on some things. My thoughts on Miami Art Basel  are the following: I  think that as far as marketing and organization is concerned, the event is fabulous and worth while seeing. I personally beleive that some of the art exposed is over rated and extremely over priced, but then again, if some people are willing to throw their money away on certain items  they are free to do so.After all it all amounts to demand and supply and above all marketing. I personally have classical tastes so I prefer to spend money on more tangible things and in Italy I do have some good pieces of art, but they are  by classical artists.

I beleive eveybody should be tollerant because  everyone is different and has different tastes, personally I have expressed my ideas : I would never throw my money on certain things exposed in this show if some people do and it makes them happy, good for them
