PILLIN TAKING OFF?

$3.5 million asked for Pillin's "Circus" by dealer at INTARTEX, The International Art Exchange.

This daring move could preface a new exciting era in the world of art where prices for works of unmistakable genius skyrocket in value resulting in a literal revolution in competitive art acquisition.

"Why wait 100 years for the inevitable? Polia Pillin is as good as any great modern artist and I can prove it!" says Mr. Warren, owner of INTARTEX. "There is no point in selling superb art at introductory prices, I'd much rather keep the art."

Polia Pillin (1909-1992), essentially contemporary with and undoubtedly influenced by Picasso (1881-1973), developed her own modern style. Both artists were shaped by their environments. Far from the disruptive strife of fascist Spain where a politically sensitized Picasso produced Guernica, Pillin lived in California, her art reflecting the relative serenity of her life.

"Here's the test" said Mr. Warren, "let's look at some of their works, four by Picasso and two by Pillin. Select two that you like, not two that you recognize, but two that you are not familiar with and that you feel will best stand the test of time. After you make your choices, check each photo to identify the artist. Chances are that at least one of your choices will turn out to be a Pillin! But at this moment (until right now), Pillin's sell for thousands and Picasso's sell for millions. In fact, this last May a Picasso sold at Sotheby's for $104 million."

Polia Pillin is a well recognized, eagerly collected and widely exhibited artist and ceramicist. Each year the prices paid for her art increases but as of this moment (October, 2004) you can still purchase outstanding examples of her work in the $3,000 to $15,000 range "but not from INTARTEX where her art is priced at what it currently merits. INTARTEX will lead, that the rest will follow is a certainty" states Mr. Warren who has a collection of her works. "I knew Polia and visited her studio in Los Angeles as well as her outlet in Sausalito" said the proprietor of INTARTEX. "At that time the prices she set for her art were well under $100 per item". "You always take my best work" she would chide." "Unbelievable" I would think. And I do believe that I have, by far, among the finest examples of her work.

Mr. Warren went on to state that "Polia Pillin's art will appreciate astronomically. It has moved out of its lag phase now and I believe that prices will accelerate exponentially fairly shortly. And if I'm wrong, it's only a matter of time, then your children or grandchildren will gain. However, incredible financial appreciation is just about ordained."
