The kind of art investment for some | Photo from Unsplash
This is the scenario for more than 22 months now. People were hardly involved in any other activity except looking after each other’s health. Business, technology were second grade since the COVID-19 had an outbreak and one of the most affected were the art exhibits, with the enthusiasts for art investment.
Art was quite forgotten by many but not by the artists, art collectors, dealers, investors, and enthusiasts. Museums were empty for some time where galleries were filled with dust, and most of the art exhibits and auctions were canceled. As same as the other industry, the pandemic affected the art market.
But on the brighter side, this made the art market boom into another way of showcasing fine art where art galleries were converted into online auction houses. Some were sold through social media channels and some were even converted into a non-fungible token (NFT) sold with cryptocurrencies, where emerging artists have been recognized with this new platform.
