Press Release Body = New & free : Artvalue.com

New and free of charge, the web site www.artvalue.com has been available to the
art markets since April 2007. Together with the ADAGP, Artvalue.com provides
without any restrictions images and auction results that have been published or
collected throughout the whole world by the Guide Mayer since 1987.

Published annualy since 1962, the last edition of the Guide Mayer papier was
published in 2005. These two years were used to build up the web site of
artvalue.com, with the idea of putting forward through a free web site all the
crucial information concerning the art market.This information is all destined to
journalists, professionals and amateurs within the field.

Seeming elitist or reserved to a well-off clientele, the art maket increases its
fame on occasions during high record auctions.Nevertheless, on more than 130.000
artists which have been referenced since 1987 from both Guide Mayer and Artvalue,
there are numerous small masters whose rates remain accessible towards amateurs and
collectors. As a result, artvalue suggests to (re)discover the diversity of this
market where anyone is able to buy in a sales room or a gallery.

The website is also a device for auction houses within the arts market. In addition
to the consultation of the data base, the auction houses are offered a free of
charge access to the editorial backoffice of the website: an occasion to line up
their catalogues before beggining the sessions, and to diffuse to a strong audience
the access to the calendar, whose access is completely free for visitors.
Dowloadable on as many places as possible , the auction houses have the control
over this site which belongs to them.

At last, in order not to limit the professionals on signed art objects,
artvalue.com likewise welcomes collectible and luxury objects: design, jewellery,
furniture, silverwear and collectable cars as examples. Other services are also
available: a tool which allows oneself to estimate constantly in a free of charge
manner the value of an object, thanks to a connection with similar objects or
similar works: in accordance with the dates, the subject, the technique or the
format and taken from the data base of the website.

As the Guide was an essential tool of work for both professionals and amateurs
within the arts world, artvalue.com commits itself to provide high quality
information, information that gave to the Guide Mayer its outstanding reputation,
and made of it a reference on the market.
