NAVIGATING THE ART MARKETS
An online course by Node Center



The art world has become a complex network of individuals, institutions, and larger forces that activate a global marketplace for art. This course will assist in demystifying the dynamics of the art market to help you navigate it successfully.

Over the course of 4 weeks, we will explain the complex interactions between key players and institutions including collectors, art galleries, auction houses, art fairs, and what independent art professionals such as appraisers and advisers do. A special focus will also be given to the online art marketplace, the newest development in the market.

The course will emphasize postwar & contemporary art, discussed in terms of both primary and secondary markets. A focus will be placed on the mainstream art market, navigated through major hubs in the US, UK, and Western Europe, and also explore emerging markets such as China.

'Navigating the Art Markets' is for those wanting to work in a commercial gallery, break into the art market or learn more about its economic system. At the completion of the course, participants will have an increased knowledge of the entire art market, and most importantly how to take advantage of it in their careers.

*Video-conferences every Monday at 7pm Central European Time. Recordings available in case you miss a live session!
