and has a status of an independent professional jury, free in its judges and estimations. Defining rating categories is made on the basis of all available information about works of art, biographies, expositions, collections and sales of works, catalogues and internet and press publications, art historians’ and art-managers’ opinions, public opinion polls etc.

Artists are subdivided into categories “A” and “B”:

An artist of “A” category does not virtually submit to the market’s demand;
An artist of “B” category is mainly oriented to the market demand.

Each category has its levels from the first (the top of recognition and fame; is referred to the deceased classic artists, whose works of art are widely recognized in museums) to the seventh one (amateur artist).

According to the declared principles, defining of rating categories is made on available information about expositions, sales and collections of works, catalogues, publications, biographies, public-opinion polls etc. Rating criterias are: art level of works, their humanistic significance, professionalism, exhibitions, works in museums, recognition by the public, galleries and art critics, social and civil significance of works, price level of works etc.

United Artists Rating contains pricing recommendations about sale and purchase of works of art.

United Artists Rating is constantly changed, refined and supplemented.
