My father owned a gallery for a few decades. His may be atypical as it was not in an expensive/exclusive shopping district and was some what avant-garde, but the way art sold at his level was copious amounts of alcohol. A very high percentage of art sold at the opening and was directly related to the quality of the party. I think people are not sure about art unless they can lock into it a positive memory. Art becomes not only a pleasing picture for your wall but a trigger of a good memory whenever looked upon.
