PARIS (Reuters) - The auction of Yves Saint Laurent's monumental art collection ended on Wednesday having broken a string of records, defied the Chinese government and raised more than 370 million euros ($470 million). The late fashion designer's collection, built up over five decades with his partner Pierre Berge, had been described as one of the most important in private hands and the auction attracted interest from collectors and spectators all over the world. The final total of 373.5 million euros broke estimates of 300 million euros but Berge, who is donating the proceeds to charity and medical research, said he was not surprised by the sale's success even in the worst global recession for decades.

Feb 24 - An art collection by late fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent defied the financial crisis, breaking world records by raising over 206 million euros, 262 million USD on its opening day. The sale of two bronze sculptures in the YSL collection - originally looted 150 years ago by British and French troops - have been the subject of a Paris court case, after Chinese officials pleaded for them not to be auctioned by owner Pierre Berge, the former partner of late fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent.

Imaginary Realism - Magic Realism has become an official, worldwide movement with the full credentials of any other major art phenomenon. Magic Realism has been quietly simmering as a world wide grass roots movement for more than three decades. Slowly but surely it has produced fine artists from Europe, The Americas, and Asia. The roots have taken hold in literature, cinema and commercial art. It is finally time to look seriously at this phenomenon as a long overdue art movement with all the credibility it deserves. Dreamscape was created to show the growing world of Imaginary Realism and its many facets of this phantasmagorical prism of which Magical Realism is only one of its parts.

It’s definitely a bubble, but when it will burst is anybody’s guess From the Art Newspaper - By Richard Feigen | Posted 03 July 2007 - The writer is director of Richard L. Feigen & Co. in New York and author of “Tales from the Art Crypt” (Knopf, 2000) The sources of the “bubble”, if such it be, trace back to the mid 1980s. It was then that art began its transformation from luxury to fungible asset, from bagatelle to investment. Banks started to lend money on art and form “art advisory” departments. Auction houses began providing “guarantees”, “advances” and “financial services” to buyers and sellers. Art had been monetised.

The Transhumanist Arts Center is designed to provide insight into the future directions of art and creativity of the 21st Century as well as a brief history of transhumanity, Transhumanist Arts, and Extropic Art. Artists and the arts, throughout history, have been a voice and a vision of civilization. Artists, as communicators, reach out to others and introduce insight and vision about society and culture. Artists and the arts bring together the passions, the dreams and the hopes of humanity and transhumanity and express these emotions in ways that touch us deeply. Whether it is filmmaking, industrial or graphic design, poetry, fiction, science fiction, digital images, video, paintings, music, dance, sculpture, architecture, literature—our work communicates to culture and affects the pulse of culture.
