Megan Fox Kelly, a leading professional art advisor, examines the divergent signals that defined the art market in 2025, from billion-dollar auction weeks in New York to the disciplined confidence seen in Paris. Fox Kelly explains why the year was not a downturn but a recalibration. She argues that the opportunities for 2026 lie in embracing quality, clarity of purpose and a more strategic, connoisseur-driven approach to collecting.
In this Q&A, Beowolff Capital CEO Andrew Wolff explains why he believes the future of the art market lies in transparency, data and A.I.-powered collaboration. He outlines how integrating Artsy and Artnet could create a seamless ecosystem for collectors and artists, how technology is shifting power from gatekeepers to communities and why human creativity remains the art world’s most valuable asset in an increasingly automated age.
