Art Basel Sentiment Results: A Market Eager for a Discovery

June 14, 2017 by Marion Maneker

Our full sentiment survey about Art Basel and the upcoming June sales in London is available to AMMpro subscribers. 

The industry both loves and loathes Art Basel, it's the granddaddy of art fairs where galleries bring their absolute best works to attract the most serious buyers. If there are complaints, they really come down to the intensity of the event itself.

Our sentiment poll was clicked upon by nearly 150 respondents from a wide range of positions within the industry. You can see from the graph above that although there are some who love the event and others who can no longer bear it, the bulk of respondents reinforce that Art Basel is the essential art fair.

When asked about their view of the market, respondents fell into two bullish camps. Nearly 88% of respondents were looking to buy in one form or another.
