LiveArt's Hot List for Spring 2022, Part 1

Artelligence Podcast

This is LiveArt's Hot List for the second quarter of 2022. Using our comprehensive data, we looked at the sales in April, May and June in London, New York and Hong Kong. We tried to identify the artists with high hammer ratios across multiple sales. Hammer ratio is the hammer price over low estimate. We narrowed that list to a few dozen artists, excluding, for example, the names from the Winter Hot List. Then we boiled it down further to 16 artists whose markets we think are worth paying some attention to right now. To give all 16 artists the time they deserve, along with some related observations from the marketplace by George O’Dell, we split the podcast into two parts. In this episode, George discusses the markets for Ernie Barnes, Anna Weyant, Robert Motherwell, Scott Kahn, Lynda Benglis, Donald Baechler, Francesco Clemente, Roby Dwi Antono, and Katherine Bernhardt. If you want to follow along as we discuss the sales, go to analytics.liveart.io. Type the artist’s name in the nav-bar search window in the upper right hand corner. Once you’re on the artist’s page, scroll down to the search results. In the right-hand corner you can sort by date sold, newest to oldest. Or use the Auction Sales tab to select only the sales for 2022.
