History and Theory

A New Art from Emerging Markets sets out to introduce and examine three types of emerging market for contemporary art: the very recently established, the maturing and the mature. In temporal terms, the youngest are no more than five years old; the maturing, 15 years old; and the mature up to 25 years old. But time is only one measure of the market, because size and speed of growth provide other means of establishing where the market is placed. Written accessibly and engagingly for general readers as well as art professionals and investors, the book presents emerging art-market scenarios, often with recourse to past markets, that offer the collector, investor, speculator, observer and culturally interested individual an insight into where the new markets are and how they are likely to develop.
