"The International Art Markets" shows like no other book the huge scope for diversification within that market. In 43 chapters, written by 58 mostly locally-based experts from the art trade, it covers 21 countries from Europe, 12 from Asia and Australasia, five from South America, four from the Middle East and Africa, and two from North America. It deliberately gives equal weighting to each art market, despite the predominance of the USA and Britain. Each chapter provides the following essential information you need to understand the market in each country: art market history including taste, fashion, value, artists, art types, subjects, sales, prices and records; market structure and performance including auctioneers, dealers, trade associations, museums, exhibitions, fairs, training and education; and tax and regulation.
