  • Six Audacious Art Market Predictions for 2021
    Press Release February 11, 2021 Six Audacious Art Market Predictions for 2021 Artnet’s Sophie Neuendorf about the staying power of digitalization and a renewed focus on quality Berlin/New York, February 11, 2021: The art market just emerged from arguably the most difficult and unpredictable year in recent history. The Covid-19 pandemic caused a synchronized and deep downturn of the global economy and art market in 2020. Social distancing measures and a lockdown of businesses in reaction to the health crisis resulted in falling consumer demand and economic output. According to the Artnet Price Database, global auction sales for fine art fell by a quarter to $9.9 billion in 2020, compared to the previous year. But the Covid-19 pandemic also pushed boundaries and accelerated the art world into the digital age. With this backdrop in mind, Sophie Neuendorf is to take the risk and make six art world predictions for 2021. 1. Digitalization is here to stay Plato was right: necessity is indeed the mother of invention. During the COVID-19 crisis, one area that has seen tremendous growth is digitalization, meaning everything from online customer service to remote working to supply-chain reinvention to artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to improve the art business. With galleries, museums, and auction houses pivoting online and thinking outside the box in response to the pandemic, a positive trend of accessibility, efficiency, and transparency accelerated within the art world. This also goes hand in hand with a global trend of sustainability and conscious living. The art market's transactional element will emerge as a strong contender to the traditional brick and mortar purchasing process, democratizing the art market and opening it up to a new generation of art lovers.

According to Deutschlandfunk, Berlin will pick up the tab for the program at the start of 2018. Recommended Reading Art Recovery International Launches Global Database to Protect Cultural Heritage By Caroline Elbaor, Nov 16, 2016 Since 2003, researchers at the university in the German capital have investigated the history, context, and effects of the cultural policy of the Nazis. Under national socialism, thousands of works of “degenerate” art were seized from German museums and private collections by the regime. Artists, collectors, and institutions linked with Communism, Judaism, homosexuality, or other characteristics contradicting the regime’s warped perception of what German society should look like, were under threat. https://news.artnet.com/art-world/germany-degenerate-art-research-755993[29.11.2016 13:42:25] Germany Secures Future of 'Degenerate Art' Research | artnet News German Culture Minister Monika Grütters.
