Revised Edition of Robertson's Art Market Study Published

Lund Humphries has published a revised edition of Iain Robertson's 2011 book, now titled 'New Art New Market' instead of 'A New Art From Emerging Markets', reflecting globalization. The 256-page book, priced at $25.00, examines art markets in China, Japan, India, Iran, South America, and Southeast Asia, focusing on shifting value systems and regional histories. Robertson, Head of Art Business Studies at Sotheby's Institute of Art, dismisses city-states like Hong Kong, Singapore, and Gulf regions as 'Unsafe Havens' due to political volatility, despite their growth as art hubs with liquidity and free ports. His geopolitical analysis covers East Asia, India, Iran, and South America, drawing on his travel insights.
