Think the economy has you worried?
Bloomsberg.muse has a story with a great teaser paragraph:
In a village in southern China, Wu Ruiqiu is worried about the effect of an economic slump on the art market. He should be. Wu represents artists that make 60 percent of the world's oil paintings.
60% of the world's oil paintings? Well, they may be right. Dafen is an industrial production center for paintings - original and replicas. I'm sure their sales are down.
