In 2022, the key players in the art world – artists, galleries, collectors, museums, auction rooms and fairs – no longer match to the classical definitions, each taking on the roles of the other players. This means the art world, as we know it, is rapidly changing.
The changes don’t stop there: the market share of each speciality (ancient art, modern art, impressionists, post-war art, contemporary art) is constantly shifting, as are the roles of the leading countries in the global market. Add to this the rise of digital art and the creation of the NFT and things look set to continue their accelerated transformation. What can we learn from these big changes?
Join Beatrice Taevernier, expert and founder of B-Arty consultancy and VIP representative of Art Basel in order to bring yourself up to speed on the rapidly evolving art world and discover what is around the corner.
