Closing Thoughts
Short-term speculative volume has largely departed the everyday art market, and in its place are selective acquisitions. The top two headlines are perfect examples. A single collector makes a big Urs Fischer statement in a not-often-seen but highly regarded collection (CHAOS), and another acquires a secondary market Skygolpe for double digit ETH soon after the artist’s physical sale at Christie’s (that was for $129k USD).
We’re firmly in range of summer-time, which means the above is likely to continue for a bit. There’s only one way to find out. Onward!
