Art Markets & the World in Transition: Frameworks Shaping Global Collecting
June 13, 2026
About the Event:
A timely conversation on shifting markets, legal change, and the future of collecting worldwide.
The global art market is navigating one of its most turbulent periods in recent memory. Geopolitical uncertainty, shifting tax and tariff landscapes, and changes in collector interests are fundamentally reshaping where, how, and why art changes hands. Against this backdrop, the legal and advisory frameworks governing the market have never mattered more.
The conversation also turned to the future of collecting itself: how to attract new audiences, provide them with trusted tools, and encourage participation in a vibrant international art market. Timely, practical, and candid, this talk was designed for collectors, advisors, gallerists, artists, and anyone with a stake in the art market’s next chapter.
