Over the years of entering the society, I have gained a lot of insight, especially in the antique industry, the personnel are complex, and the market is chaotic. How to correctly treat the market and how to regulate the market is the most important thing to solve at present. Overall, there are three points:
First, the current appraisal personnel and appraisal institutions are relatively chaotic, and there are dozens of art appraisals in Beijing, and it is needless to say that there are all over the country. Now some people get a license to do the appraisal, many appraisal companies in Beijing say who their consultant experts are, even we don't know ourselves to put out our photos to become their consultant experts.
In the art market, especially in the aspect of identification, how to standardize it, so that our collectors can buy things and collect more assured, so that they can invest in themselves more steadily, as a government country, or the media, should find a way to do some work in this regard.
Second, through contact with the cultural relics and artworks market, it was found that the market has been open for more than 10 years, but the popularization of folk cultural relics knowledge is very low. The current state is that various domestic cultural and museum institutions conduct research behind closed doors, never communicate with the people, and how to integrate with the people to jointly study and discuss the appraisal work is very important.
Third, the state should strictly control antique porcelain, and cannot let some places such as Jingdezhen make imitations at will. Now fake antiques have formed an industry, from the production of counterfeits, the sale of counterfeits, and then to the purchase of counterfeits has a complete industrial chain.
With the development of social science and technology, people can accurately detect the chemical elements of glaze, tire soil, etc. by using high technology, and refer to these standard data to facilitate imitation. At present, the high-level antique porcelain can be mixed into the market as a real sale after being aged. For the market, some people sell it and some people buy it, but the study of how to maintain traditional culture and how to protect the next generation has become a grim fact. A few years later, when the older generation of experts are gone, future generations may not know whether modern imitations are old or new, even if they are now facing many fakes or imitations, experts are worried about the collector's love and personal safety, and no one dares to say what they really think. So I think that they should not be allowed to make antique porcelain at will, and it is okay to reproduce ancient art.
