Against the backdropof the global Coronavirus pandemic, the events of 2020 brought new

challenges few were preparedfor. The last 9 months have seen an unprecedentedamount of

disruption in the art market, impacting nearly every aspect of the art eco-system, from artists

to museumsto art fairs and galleries, as restrictionson social gatheringshave made it very hard

for the largely events-based art marketto survive.

However, despite these immense challenges , the art market has also experienced an extraordinary

level of innovation and ingenuity, resulting in more digital innovation, experimentation and risk

taking than we have seen in the past decade. The art market is at a tipping point of entering a

new era, potentially redefining what it means to be an art business in the Century.

The latest ArtTactic Confidence Indicator reading came in at 44.7, up from 6.4 atthe last reading in May 2020 - the lowest indicator reading since the survey waslaunched in May 2005. Although more experts still remain negative than positive tothe Contemporary art market's development over the coming 6 months ( shown by areading below 50 ) , the initial fear of a complete meltdown of the art market has beenunfounded and bodes well for a further recovery from the initial damage caused bythe pandemic

which is below the average of 6.4 for the period May 2005 to November 2020 .There are, however, fears that the speculation in the market for younger artists could

beginning of December. Phillips opted to hold off their traditional 20th Century andContemporary Art New York sale until December, where sales raised $114.7 million,up more than 3-times from $34.7 million in the . Their total increase for the

Autumn season saw growth of 227.4 % from the Summer Christie's total AutumnHybrid sales came in at $548.3 million, 22.0% higher than the Summer, with Sotheby's
