Everyone can draw their own conclusions: "Time to invest in the art market? New 'stock exchange for art' to launch at the Victoria & Albert Museum this month" by Anny Shaw.

"Artex, a new "online stock exchange for art", offered its first initial public offering (IPO) in an event at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London last night—Francis Bacon's Three Studies for a Portrait of George Dyer. The painting last sold at auction in May 2017 for nearly $52m and will be offered to investors starting at around $55m. Dealings will begin on 21 July."
"All works of art—or art IPOs—are owned by Artex, which will issue the shares, worth €100 each. These shares can then be bought, sold or traded on a secondary market on the Artex exchange. Shareholders are limited to a 10% stake in each work; anything above that threshold triggers a takeover bid, which could be outbid."

A universal basic income for artists? US cities are trying it.

"Guaranteed income programs for artists are far less common, but they have gained traction in the past two years."

The Economy of Arts - Should you invest in art in 2023?

To the young collectors, my advice is, to find a local artist whose work you enjoy. Get to know the art and artists. Create a budget for your art collection. Buy art because you love it and you would love it even if the art never gained value.

Christie’s and Sotheby’s ordered to disclose dealings with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Sales of paintings by Cézanne and Picasso worth a combined $139m are also under scrutiny by the US Virgin Island AG

According to court documents, one of the Cézannes was sold to Narrows Holdings, a company that Leon Black, the chairman of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, has used to purchase much of his billion-dollar art collection.

Today I am reading bits of Ali Aboutaam's confession. He and his brother Hitcham of Phoenix Ancient Art in Geneva have racked up an impressive number of convictions across the world, many more accusations, and are super litigious themselves yet somehow they are still in business. People buy from them. It's mind boggling.

There's been a trend lately in art crime convictions of dodgy antiquities dealers making actual confessions to their crimes. So they aren't just convicted after saying "I've done nothing wrong", they are all like "yeah...I did something wrong" with the implication that they knowingly got away with that for decades. 1/ #ArtCrime #IllicitAntiquities #ArtMarket @artcrime #Archaeology

One day in 2003, Oscar White Muscarella, an archaeologist at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, took a stroll through his workplace.
Wearing a blue seersucker suit spiffed up by a paisley ascot, he pointed at a display of ancient Greek art. “Looted,” he told a Village Voice reporter. His assessment of a glass case of pottery: “All plunder.”

Totally agree. The example I most like to remember is how the art galleries in New York refused to display the prices of works despite the City Council's request in the 1980s. The City Council lost the battle.

@srfirehorseart @histodons @academicchatter Although there is already a lot of research showing the different tricks that the art market uses to hide its economic dynamics (sometimes very ingenious strategies as shown, among others, by Olav Velthuis or Don Thompson), it is a topic yet to be explored. Moreover, for many people, Art still has an almost sacred dimension and they do not accept this economic dimension.
#Art #ArtMarket

When I started studying #ArtHistory in the early nineties, there already was a lively discussion around the lack of women artists & the general lack of #diversity in museum collections, but no real change in acquisition politics. So this seems to have change quit a bit. At least in the US.

Hopefully I'll be able to get some new sales and show of my work to new people ~

I fondly remember the enraged comments I've got on Twitter, when I posted some mildly snarky tweets on the #NFT art craze as just another scam masquerading as the next messianic hope for artists to make some money. A lot of people were really into believing that blockchaining would inherently ensure royalties. Well, it doesn't & nft "creator" platforms know this perfectly well.

I'm waking up in New Zealand to the news that Maximus the T. rex skull sold for $10mil UNDER its low estimate at Sotheby. Oops! Predictably unpredictable and disruptive. T. Rex doesn't do what people want them to do. Happy Fossil Friday.

Holy heck, the Shen T. rex sale is cancelled!! Why? Because Shen is only 50% of a T. rex, the rest appears to be casts of Stan the T. rex, and the owners of Stan's intellectual property have not agreed to the Shen sale (which purported to come with Shen's IP). We literally wrote in a paper last week that it seemed impossible that a sale of T. rex could happen with no drama...well...

Computer connoisseurship? "Computer says there is a 80.58% probability painting is a real Renoir". If art authenticity is socially constructed, can and AI effectively construct it? Is a computer more believable than a connoisseur? Probably "yes" for most people.

The Christmas tree has old fashion toys all around the front of it. From the right an old fashion sled, a blue robot, a train engine, a doll, a spindle, a teddy bear, a rocket ship, and a boat.
