On collecting the art

Collecting art requires intellectual independence.  And there is not a better way to express it.  It is unlike decorating the house, which is an expression of “good taste”, which a result of following commonly accepted conventions.  Decorators buy art in the furniture store where it is reduced to a commodity.  When people ask me where to start I say start from reading some websites such as artdaily.com or artmarketmonitor.com  Sure you may not have thousands of dollars to spend.  But those sites are free and they will give you an idea of how art market participants think.
