After a successful trial in November, the University Library now provides permanent access to Bloomsbury Art Markets (BAM). BAM is a new, peer-reviewed database containing historical and current factual data about the art market.
Over 2.000 entries combine factual data with biographical information and historical narratives on art galleries, auction houses, art fairs, and art dealers in Europe and North America from around 1900 to the present. Each entry outlines the principal activities of the organization or individual by listing exhibitions, clients, regular partners, and major artists whose works were sold.
Bloomsbury Art Markets is designed to serve the research areas of Art Market Studies, Art Historiography, and provenance research.
