Who are the most expensive jewish artists today, who paint Jewish Art?
Yesterday, a person passed my shop and commented that Jewish art has no value.
So I was inspired to make a list of the most expensive jewish artists today.
1.) Isadore Kaufman, have sold on Sotheby’s for over 500,000.
2.) Reuven Rubin, have sold on Christie’s for over 600,000.
3.) Nahum Guttman, have sold on Tirosh auction for over 60,000.
4.) Zalman Kleiman, have sold in private sales for over 100,000 in a Brooklyn gallery.
5.) Elena Flerova have sold in private sales for over 100,000.
6.) Itzhak Holtz, regularly sell on auctions for 20-40,000. In private sales, peices have sold for over 200,000.
7.) Huvy, on Matsart auction sold for 50,000. In private sales, paintings sold for over 100,000.
8.) Zvi Malnivotzer sold in a Matsart auction for 60,000.
9.) Mane Katz sold in a auction for 110,000 dollars.
10.) Ludwig Blum sold in Tiroche auction house for 70,000 dollars.
So, I guess jewish art has some value.
P.s. the above numbers are the artists best paintings, but values vary piece by piece.
