Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business Finance Professor Mei Jianping Releases the Spring 2024 MM Chinese Art Indices
On July 8th, 2024, CKGSB Finance Professor Mei Jianping published the latest MM Chinese Art Indices , evidencing changes in the popularity of the Chinese art market by analyzing repeated auction sales. Covering prices, sentiment, liquidity and popularity, the new set of figures takes our understanding of the Chinese art market prices up to Spring 2024.
The Indices cover artworks by over 400 Chinese artists from Greater China and overseas that have been repeatedly put up for auction between 1980-2024. The 2024 Spring Auction Index shows the Chinese art market remains in a period of consolidation, with a somewhat slowing downward trend. Chinese art continues to hold long-term investment value. As a physical asset, it is anti-inflationary in a world flush with liquidity. Therefore, with the development of China’s economy and the growth of worldwide Chinese wealth, Chinese art is expected to continue to receive interest from collectors and investors.
On June 29, the “Gather Great Wisdom to Shape the Future of Intelligent Manufacturing—Special Exhibition on Design Intelligence and High Quality Development”, hosted by the China Academy of Art (CAA), opened at the National Museum of China in Beijing.
This exhibition is based upon a show of the results of the Design Intelligence Award (DIA) hosted by CAA. The DIA has been moving toward its goal of “becoming a world-class industrial design award” over the past decade. Anchored in the intelligent manufacturing motifs of “humanistic intelligence, life wisdom, science-art intelligence, and industrial think tank”, the DIA focuses on the deep integration of critical, disruptive technological advances with humanistic care, with a mission to identify and apply new technologies, products, and models to lead the modernization and transformation of industries. It has rapidly evolved into China’s most globally influential comprehensive innovation design award, providing unceasing momentum for developing new quality productive forces and establishing a robust innovation platform for high-quality development.
