Contemporary art market confidence is slowly creeping back
After the ArtTactic Confidence Indicator reached a low point in July 2023, our latest reading in January 2024 came in at 38, which could signal that confidence is creeping back into the art market at the beginning of this year, although the negative market sentiment continue to outweigh positive voices in the market. After the global Contemporary art auction market declined in 2023, on the back of increasing economic and geo-political uncertainty, it looks like experts surveyed by ArtTactic are starting to feel that the worst might be over and that a bottom has been reached.
About this report:
The ArtTactic Art Market Confidence Indicator was launched in May 2005 and is now in its 39th edition. The survey is modelled on a similar methodology to the CEO confidence Survey that was launched in 1976 by the Conference Board in the US. We believe that the opinions of a small group of select ‘art insiders’; collectors, auction houses, advisors and other art professionals provide a valuable insight into the perception about the current and future state of the art market.
