With the Commitment to help potential Art buyers and Art Collectors, the first "Art Collectors Assistance" summit was formally inaugurated this past weekend, at Ananda Ganesha Gallery, located in 2208 Mexicaltzingo Street. Martha Venegas Trujillo, General Director of Tequila’s Rout, A. C. was present at this event. Venegas Trujillo announced a possible collaboration with the Tequila Museum and the promotion of art work exhibited at this event.

Maricela (Ganesha) Machuca, Art Promoter and architect of this concept, welcomed the attendees and encourage the artists to involve themselves in monitoring their art work, by providing potential buyers with an explanation of their work, and to participate more with the galleries.

"Very often we leave our work at the gallery and we forget about the buyers. We do not engage ourselves on giving due attention to collectors or to potential buyers." To Ganesha Machuca, this event consists of mainly that: bringing both sides together (the gallery and the artist) in this dynamic, so that both may appreciate each other’s work. The gallery provides space for the exhibit and, as an aggregated value, promotes itself with the art work. The artist lets everyone know the endeavor put on the creation of his work: time involved, complexity, things they had to give up in order to make it to the exhibit and get his work appraised.

Doctor Oscar Lomeli, host and owner of the Holoclínica Inhome and who donated the space in the Gallery, was thankful for the initiative of presenting art collectors to the artist themselves, to learn firsthand about their motivations, to hear from them what they were trying to capture and compare it with the interpretation of art collectors and possible buyers. "This will be your home from today forward. We have even a forum where your work can be auctioned. This is a place where you will be able to exhibit your work and where your work will be appreciated, and what it is good for the spirit is also good to your health, so welcome home,” he said.

On the other hand, Carmen Alarcón Collignon, Art Specialist, emphasized that this is an initiative of great value, because it allows collectors to interact with the painter, "where (both) are aware that there are both equals, the difference is in the type of language used by the author to communicate with society, a language that is not directed to any

one specific but which is expected to be translated by the perception and vision that the spectator has of it," he said.

Finally Martha Venegas Trujillo, announced that work is being done for Tequila Museum to host artwork exhibits of the type hosted on this occasion. "It will be an honor for us to exhibit this quality of art work in the Tequila Museum. We are already in talks to keep this exhibit with us; we have the space for it. It is encouraging to be able to somehow, contribute to the promotion of these art manifestations. It is a pleasure to assume this commitment.” She went on to announce that Maricela Ganesha Machuca was in charge and responsible for the selection of works to be displayed.

It should be noted that the art work presented, was done by artists of the kind of Tamys Leal Barceló, Lewis Kant, Ricardo Ramírez, Jose Luis Malo, Gustavo Plascencia, and Homer Regla. Also Riky Grana, Javier Córdova and Juan José Ramos, among others. Only two artists will not be present at the event: Gustavo April Bernal (Colombian) and Yoel Diaz Gálvez (Cuban).
