This year the emphasis is on the US, the worlds largest art market, and on China, its fastest growing rival in recent years. The report draws attention to the part played by art fairs in attracting international collectors to a single location.

Download or read book Art Fair Story written by Melanie GERLIS and published by Hot Topics in the Art World. This book was released on 2021-12 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In just half a century of growth, the art fair industry has transformed the art market. Now, for the first time, art market journalist Melanie Gerlis tells the story of art fairs' rapid ascent and reflects on their uncertain future. From the first post-war European art fairs built on the imperial 19th-century model of the International Exhibitions, to the global art fairs of the 21st century and their new online manifestations, it's a tale of many twists and turns. The book brings to life the people, places and philosophies that enabled art fairs to take root, examines the pivotal market periods when they flourished, and maps where they might go in a much-changed world.
Download or read book Art for Sale written by Dirk Boll and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How is an English auction different from a Dutch auction? What distinguishes a vintage print from a period, modern or estate print? Dirk Boll, Managing Director of Christie's in Zurich, explains these and other technical terms, providing invaluable insights into the machinations of the art market: the increasingly symbiotic relationship between auction houses and art dealers, the strategies used by the big auction houses, recognizing and creating trends, the profiles of the various art fairs, promising new areas for collectors and the future development of the art market are just some of Art for Sale's fascinating themes. As a doctor of law, Boll is as competent at shedding light on the legal parameters regulating the acquisition of art, as he is in elucidating the difficulties surrounding looted art and restitution procedures. Art for Sale unpacks the art market in a knowledgeable, humorous style, and from a true insider's perspective.

Book Synopsis Art Market Research by : Tom McNulty
Download or read book Art Market Research written by Tom McNulty and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-12-19 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for art market researchers at all levels. A brief overview of the global art market and its major stakeholders precedes an analysis of the various sales venues (auction, commercial gallery, etc.). Library research skills are reviewed, and advanced methods are explored in a chapter devoted to basic market research. Because the monetary value of artwork cannot be established without reference to the aesthetic qualities and art historical significance of our subject works, two substantial chapters detail the processes involved in researching and documenting the fine and decorative arts, respectively, and provide annotated bibliographies. Methods for assigning values for art objects are explored, and sources of price data, both in print and online, are identified and described in detail. In recent years, art historical scholarship increasingly has addressed issues related to the history of art and its markets: a chapter on resources for the historian of the art market offers a wide range of sources. Finally, provenance and art law are discussed, with particular reference to their relevance to dealers, collectors, artists and other art market stakeholders.
Book Synopsis Cosmopolitan Canvases by : Olav Velthuis
Download or read book Cosmopolitan Canvases written by Olav Velthuis and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the late 1990s, contemporary art markets have emerged rapidly outside of Europe and the United States. China is now the world's second largest art market. In counties as diverse as Brazil, Turkey and India, modern and contemporary art has been recognized as a source of status, or a potential investment tool among the new middle classes. At art auctions in the US, London and Hong Kong, new buyers from emerging economies have driven up prices to record levels. The result of these changes has been an increase in complexity, interconnectedness, stratification and differentiation of contemporary art markets. Our understanding of them is still in its early stages and empirical research in the field of globalization of high arts is still scarce. This book brings together recent, multidisciplinary, cutting edge research on the globalization of art markets. Focusing on different regions, including China, Russia, India and Japan, as well as different institutions and organizations, the chapters in this volume study the extent to which art markets indeed become global. They show the various barriers to, and the effects of, globalization on the art market's organizational dynamics and the everyday narratives of people working within the art industry. In doing so, they recognize the coexistence of various ecologies of contemporary art exchange, and sketch the presence of resilient local networks of actors and organizations. Some chapters show Europe and the US continue to dominate, especially when taking art market rankings and the most powerful events such as Art Basel into account. However, other chapters argue that things such as art fairs are truly global events and that the 'architecture of the art market' which has originally been developed in Europe and the US from the 19th century onwards, is increasingly adopted across the world.
Book Synopsis The Value of Taste by : Peter Carpreau
Download or read book The Value of Taste written by Peter Carpreau and published by Collectors and Dealers. This book was released on 2017 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taste is a well known but largely underestimated phenomenon. Yet it is one of the factors that has shaped our knowledge and view of art. Why is Rembrandt van Rijn today considered to be one of the greatest painters in European art while Gerard de Lairesse, Rembrandt's younger contemporary and one of the best-selling painters of his day, is now forgotten? This book is a systematic and quantitative study of taste. More specifically it focuses on the painters of the seventeenth-century Low Countries and follows the changes in consumer evaluation of them from the seventeenth century up to 2008. Proceeding from the same starting point as Gerald Reitlinger in his monumental The Economics of Taste, it uses the prices paintings have fetched at auction as a basis for tracing trends in the taste of the art-buying public. Whereas Reitlinger's approach was rather intuitive, this study develops a sound methodological basis for researching taste and auction prices. It is not only quantitative methods and properties of auction prices that require a specific approach: in historical research quantitative data and analyses are only reliable when they can also be tested against qualitative or historical sources. Based on a statistical analysis, various 'universal' painters, such as Rubens and Rembrandt, are defined. In addition, however, specific genres such as landscape, portrait, history painting, and so on are analysed. In the case of eighty-three painters there is sufficient information to allow the profiling of individual price trends. But other quantitative data drawn from the examination of collections or catalogues raisonnes prove an additional source of information when compared with auction prices. This book shows what big data and statistics can mean to our understanding of art.

Download or read book Art of the Deal written by Noah Horowitz and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-08-31 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art today is defined by its relationship to money as never before. Prices of living artists' works have been driven to unprecedented heights, conventional boundaries within the art world have collapsed, and artists now think ever more strategically about how to advance their careers. Artists no longer simply make art, but package, sell, and brand it. Noah Horowitz exposes the inner workings of the contemporary art market, explaining how this unique economy came to be, how it works, and where it's headed. He takes a unique look at the globalization of the art world and the changing face of the business, offering the clearest analysis yet of how investors speculate in the market and how emerging art forms such as video and installation have been drawn into the commercial sphere. By carefully examining these developments against the backdrop of the deflation of the contemporary art bubble in 2008, "Art of the Deal" is a must-read book that demystifies collecting and investing in today's art market.
Book Synopsis The Economics of Contemporary Art by : Alessia Zorloni
Download or read book The Economics of Contemporary Art written by Alessia Zorloni and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-16 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book examines the contemporary art system with a broad and systematic approach, through the application of models of microeconomics and industrial organizations. By breaking down the traditional barriers between different academic disciplines such as art and economics, this book offers a unique opportunity to grasp the complexities of the contemporary art world and provides the tools to conduct a structural analysis of that market. The result is an in-depth analysis of the contemporary art market from an interdisciplinary perspective. While it is not a textbook in the strictest sense, the book offers a concise and effective overview of all actors in the art system, and provides supporting data and valuable information, both conceptual and practical. It is therefore a text that can be used by students wishing to better understand the complex dynamics that govern the contemporary art market, but also by cultural managers, collectors, potential art investors or simply art lovers who need a quick reference.

Book excerpt: Art has the remarkable ability to capture the essence of human creativity, emotions, and culture. For centuries, it has served as a mirror reflecting our society's ever-evolving thoughts, passions, and perspectives. From the timeless masterpieces of the Renaissance to the cutting-edge innovations of contemporary artists, art continues to inspire, provoke, and move us in profound ways. Art collecting, an age-old practice that has transcended generations, allows individuals to become custodians of these profound expressions of human imagination. Whether you're an aspiring art enthusiast, a seasoned collector, or someone who's simply curious about the world of art, this book is your gateway to the captivating universe of art collecting. At its core, art collecting is a deeply personal endeavor. It's about more than just acquiring pieces of artwork; it's a journey of exploration, self-expression, and appreciation. But why do people collect art? The motivations are as diverse as the art itself. Some collect for the sheer joy of surrounding themselves with beauty, while others see it as an investment opportunity. Art can be a reflection of one's identity or a means of connecting with different cultures and histories. In this book, we'll delve into the myriad reasons why individuals choose to embark on this enriching path. Understanding the art market is a crucial aspect of art collecting. Over time, this market has evolved from a relatively exclusive sphere to a global industry with immense economic significance. We'll explore the historical trajectory of the art market, examining the key milestones and shifts that have shaped it.

Download or read book Rogues' Gallery written by Philip Hook and published by The Experiment. This book was released on 2017-10-31 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This “expert and elegantly written” book reveals how dealers have been a major force in art history from the Renaissance to the avant garde (The Guardian, UK). Philip Hook’s riveting narrative takes us from the early days of art dealing in Antwerp, where paintings were sold by weight, to the unassailable hauteur of contemporary galleries in New York, London, Paris, and beyond. Along the way, we meet a surprisingly wide-ranging cast of characters—from tailors, spies, and the occasional anarchist to scholars, aristocrats, and connoisseurs, some compelled by greed, some by their own vision of art—and some by the art of the deal. Among them are Joseph Duveen, who almost single-handedly brought the Old Masters to America; Paul Durand-Ruel, the Impressionists’ champion; Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, high priest of Cubism; Leo Castelli, dealer-midwife to Abstract Expressionism and Pop Art; and Peter Wilson, the charismatic Sotheby’s chairman who made a theater of the auction room. Full of unforgettable anecdotes and astute insight, Rogue’s Gallery offers “a front-row seat and a backstage pass to this arcane and obsessively secretive profession” (Hannah Rothschild, Mail on Sunday, UK).
