Student Design Day at the DDB took place last week with the help of co-sponsors ASID and Editor at Large, and now we're bringing you the buzz from the day's events. The mini-market day kicked off with a breakfast and opening reception at Agostino Antiques, complete with a seminar on The Art of Collecting: Building an Affordable Art Collection, led by Carole Pinto, of Carole Pinto Fine Arts.
Carole explored XIXth and XXth European master painters whose works are technically and artistically outstanding and whose prices are affordable, stressing that "amazing art is by no means always unaffordable."
"The importance of many artists’ work can be illustrated in looking at the works they've created in full," said Carole. "Developing a discriminating eye and being able to understand what constitutes value in a work of art is important in the ability to collect fine art."
The Agostino showroom was packed with students, who were anxious to continue their day after Carole's educational seminar.
"I loved attending the breakfast and lecture from Carole Pinto," said ASID student Jessica Williams. "I really enjoyed the presentation and received such valuable information from what she said."
