Acknowledgments

I am very grateful also to Tamsin Selby of UBS for her  
help with the HNW collector surveys, which expanded 
significantly this year, providing hugely valuable 
regional and demographic insights for the report. 

The primary fine art auction data supplier for this 
report was Artory, and my sincerest thanks to Nanne 
Dekking along with Lindsay Moroney, Anna Bews, and 
Chad Scira for their hard work and dedication in putting 
together this very complex set of data. The auction 
data on China is supplied by AMMA (Art Market Monitor 
of Artron), and I am very grateful for their continued 
support of this research on the Chinese auction 
market. Many thanks also to the Xu Xiaoling and the 
Shanghai Culture and Research Institute for their help 
researching the Chinese art market.

Data from Wondeur AI on gallery, museum, and  
art fair exhibitions was a very valuable new addition 
to the report this year. My sincerest thanks also  
to Sophie Perceval and Olivier Berger for their help 
generating the data, as well as for offering their  
key insights on gender, artists' careers, and other 
interesting perspectives.

I would like to thank the team at Artsy, especially 
Alexander Forbes and Simon Warren, for their 
continuing support of the report, allowing access to 
their extensive database on galleries and artists  
to analyze some of the key issues in the gallery sector 
and helping to investigate the relationships between 
buyers and sellers online. 

Thanks to Marek Claassen at Artfacts.net for his 
support and provision of data on fairs and galleries. 
Many thanks also to all of the art fairs that shared 
information for the report. 

Very special thanks to Benjamin Mandel for his 
interesting and thorough analysis of the links between 
trade and the art market, which offered important 
context to some of the key themes in the report this 
year. I'm very grateful also to Diana Wierbicki of  
Withersworldwide for her help with information and 
insights on US tax regulations. Thanks also to  
Bruno Boesch for his legal advice on European issues. 

Finally, I am very grateful to Noah Horowitz and 
Florian Jacquier for their time and encouragement in 
helping to coordinate the research.
