Call for papers for Arts Special Issue “Global Art Market in the Aftermath of Covid-19” (2021)
Abstract Submission Deadline: 15 January 2021
According to “The Impact of COVID-19 on the Gallery Sector” survey conducted by Art Basel in the mid-2020, although the global art market has often been resilient to international economic and political events, it has faced some of its biggest challenges yet under the influence of Covid-19.
Among others, the pandemic and the accompanying restrictive administrative measures taken by world governments all over the world have exerted a significant impact on such key economic indicators, as gallery employment, art sales, and organization of international art fairs.
