Artprice: Art Market Trends 2008
Posted on: Friday, 3 April 2009, 06:47 CDT
Artprice publishes its exclusive art market report distributed to over 6,300 media organisations and international institutions every year. Based on roughly 5.4 million auction results from approximately 2,900 auctioneers, the annual report "Art Market Trends 2008" contains 39 pages of micro- and macro-economic analyses, focusing on individual sales and general price evolutions in all segments of the market. Edited by ArtMarketInsight (Artprice's press agency) in collaboration with Artprice's Econometrics team, the report also contains a number of original rankings such as the year's TOP 500 artists by sales revenue and TOP 100 highest hammer prices.
After seven consecutive years of price inflation, the art market buckled under the weight of the systemic crisis at the end of 2008. The combined impact on the art market of the financial and economic crises was particularly felt in the Unites States and on the market's most volatile segment, contemporary art. The rapid price inflation on so-called 'emerging' art markets also seems to have come to a dead halt and the first half of 2009 will be an interesting test of confidence for Russian, Asian, Turkish and Indian collectors, amongst others.
