Main Goal
The Intensive Program in Art Markets and Finance provides an overall understanding of art market dynamics, including its unique factors such as trends in taste, cultural influences, and the role galleries and auction houses play.
As with other collectibles, art is increasingly becoming an investment opportunity with the potential for substantial and uncorrelated returns. However, investing in art requires a deep understanding of market trends, valuation methods, and risk factors. Like any investment, purchasing art carries risks, such as fluctuations in market demand, changes in taste, authenticity issues, and legal considerations. Some of these risk factors are related to the physical nature of art, while financial risks arise from art being an asset whose price fluctuates over time due to subjective and objective reasons. Understanding and managing these multifaceted sources of risk is important for making informed investment decisions in the art market.
The art market, in particular, is subject to various legal and ethical considerations, including issues related to authenticity, provenance, copyright, and cultural heritage. Analysing the institutional and regulatory frameworks governing the art market is essential for conducting business ethically and avoiding potential legal pitfalls.
A broad perspective is crucial for fully understanding the art market, as this sector is characterized by constant evolution, with emerging phenomena such as financialization (e.g., art lending). By engaging with prominent players in the art market, participants gain a comprehensive view of the roles of collectors and investors, galleries, advisors, fairs, and auction houses in shaping the dynamics of the international art scene. This knowledge equips them with valuable insights and perspectives for navigating the complexities of the art world effectively.
The Program in Art Markets and Finance is also offered as a concentration within the Master in Arts Management and Administration (MAMA).
The Intensive Program in Art Markets and Finance offers a comprehensive educational experience tailored for individuals seeking to augment their professional repertoire and acquire an in-depth comprehension of the intricate dynamics between the art realm and financial markets.
Through a meticulously crafted and intense curriculum, participants undergo specialized training sessions, engage in peer-to-peer benchmarking exercises, and cultivate invaluable networking opportunities, all geared towards fostering a holistic understanding of the multifaceted interplay between art and finance.
This program caters to a diverse array of professionals entrenched within both the artistic, legal and financial sectors, encompassing a spectrum of roles and entities, ranging from seasoned art advisors to astute wealth managers.
It serves as an indispensable platform for entities and professionals actively involved in guiding art collectors, facilitating art investments, managing wealth portfolios, and providing bespoke art-related financial counsel.
By bringing together a cohort of like-minded professionals, the program facilitates vibrant discussions, knowledge exchange, and collaborative endeavors, thereby enriching the collective expertise of its participants and empowering them to navigate the nuanced complexities inherent in the convergence of art and finance.
The program consists of two learning modules for a total of 12 full days.
Each module consists in a week (Monday to Saturday from 8:30 to 4pm)
Extra visits or trips to Art Fairs could be organized on top of the classes (i.e. in other days) and will be elective.
