Chinese Credit Tightening Behind Cooling Market?

September 4, 2012 by Marion Maneker

Robert Frank has a brief post on the tempered market for Chinese art that closes with this quote:

Guan Yu, Beijing-based director at the research firm AMMA (Art Market Monitor of ARTRON), told the China Economic Review that the art boom of 2009-2010 was the result of liquidity from the government stimulus “washing up in art.” He said that the economic slowdown in China could cause the tide to recede.
