Selected Report Findings:
Short-and long-term confidence remains high: Between October 2018 and May 2019, short-term confidence (6 month outlook) in Mark Bradford’s market saw a slight decrease (down 4%), but still signals a strong positive consensus among experts about the short-term future of this market.
Mark Bradford’s auction market gained momentum in 2018: Bradford’s auction market reached a new peak in 2018, with total sales of $40.9 million, significantly higher than the $6.9 million reached in 2017 and up 13.1% from the total pre-sale mid-esti- mate value of $36.1 million in 2018.
Less museum exposure offset by increased commercial exhibition activity in 2018: Since the late 1990s, 80% of Bradford’s exhibition activity has been non-commercial, comprising institutional exhibitions within not-for profit galleries/foundations or public museums. Commercial presentations have by comparison been limited, representing just 15% of exhibitions overall. Institutional exposure has reduced significantly by number of shows during the past eighteen months, with only six non-commercial exhibitions between 2018 and the present.
