According to thierry Ehrmann, Artprice founder and CEO of its parent company Artmarket, the Contemporary art market has changed beyond recognition in 20 years.

Art, a safe haven in major crises
In conclusion, in contrast to the rest of the economy which is impacted by the current geopolitical and financial context at the moment, the art market is pursuing its growth with robust health, with regular new auction records being hammered for works from all artistic periods and in a wide range of countries during recent sales sessions. Moreover, there have been no cancellations of classic and/or prestige cataloged sales for 2023 or 2024, these sales being very much the bellwethers of the entire art market.
Major auction houses and investors know very well that art is a safe haven and a good investment, as shown by the Artprice100© index, which has outperformed traditional stock market indices. The current period of uncertainty in the stock market is also bringing new funds and investments into the art market.
During past crises, Artprice has already observed that the art market was less impacted than financial markets and the economy. This was true during the Nasdaq crash in 2000, after the 9/11 attacks in 2001, the Afghan war in 2001, the Iraq war in 2003, the subprime and CDS crisis in 2007, the negative interest rates that started in 2011, and the Covid crisis in 2019. The current period of major geopolitical unrest and the fear of a recession have clearly not got the better of the Art Market.
Methodology
This Report takes into account all public auctions of Fine Art works, i.e. paintings, drawings, sculptures, photographs, prints, videos, installations, tapestries, and NFTs, excluding antiques, anonymous cultural goods and furniture. It covers the global auction results recorded by Artprice for artworks by artists born after 1945 (Contemporary Art) between 1 July 2022 and 30 June 2023. It focuses particular attention on the results for artworks by artists under the age of 40 (Ultra-contemporary artists) between 1 January 2023 and 30 June 2023. All prices indicated in this Report refer to public auction results including buyers’ fees. All uses of the “$” symbol refer to the US dollar.
