hi, james.

this is your shortlist. first we'll offer a quick framework for evaluating favorites, as you consider what to collect.

the emerging art market is populated by artists in the earliest chapters of their career - the work is new, often straight from the artist’s studio - time has not yet tested these markets with frequency or depth.

we help position your collecting opportunity by crafting a thoughtful and logical perception of the market, examining two types of value - market signals and price relative to the median for its peers.

as you consider what to collect, we encourage you to be guided by enjoyment. the market can shift and change over time - the thrill of living with an artwork that enriches your living space never will.

market signals. we examine meaningful recognition given by the industry, indicating confidence in the artist’s work and market. these take the form of notable gallery relationships, exhibition and art fair participation, important collection placements, and social media traction, among others. market signals are important pieces of architecture positioning the artist against the rise and fall of the market.

price. we show the median price for the given material (paintings, works on paper, prints, etc.) across our curated ecosystem of over 550 data points - relative to the price of the present work.
