Rudolf Budja owns pictures which are usually only available to most of us in the form of cheap reproductions. He is an art collector, owner of the Artmosphere Galleries, and an internationally renowned dealer of Pop art. CastYourArt was interested in how one can become so successful in the art trade. After our four-part interview with Rudolf Budja, we learned a bit about his path to success, as well as the following: an art collector is not only an art collector. Rudolf Budja considers himself to be a kind of psychotherapist and “soul surgeon” for the wealthy who are seeking meaning in their lives. Art therefore provides not only a way of seeking, but also of healing. If the price of a piece of art is so high that even the rich and ruthless can feel its sting, it can plant the seed of an emotion on which that they had almost given up—the joy of discovering some kind of meaning in life.
