It was back to school for the UK art world this week at the annual Art Business Conference in London (10 September), which gathered some of the industry’s leading market specialists and professionals.
Gloomy statistics
Ahead of the meeting, Sotheby’s and Christie’s had released reports of auction sales plunging in the first half of 2024 by 25% and 22% respectively, leading to gloomy speculation for the rest of the year. Guillaume Cerutti, the chief executive of Christie’s, opened the conference by saying that the market’s downturn reflects the three “M”s: macro environmental factors, such as political instability; money factors, including high interest rates and low liquidity; and the mood, since sales of art are often pushed by desire and passion.
Yet despite the gloomy statistics, Cerutti offered glimmers of hope. He reported that while auction sales have dropped, the first half of 2024 had been Christie’s best six months for private sales. He added that particularly promising areas of growth for art sales could be found in Hong Kong and Saudi Arabia.
