THE ART MARKETS HISTORICAL RESILIENCE
An economic recession usually leads to measures that seek to stabilize falling demand and prices, such as lowering interest rates to faciliate and increase consumer spending. In a recessionary atmosphere stock market prices naturally adjust downwards until demand is matched or output descends. The art market, conversely, reacts to a recession by diminishing availability due to potential sellers of art holding on to their possessions feating not being able to secure fair prices.. Recessions therefore lead to a contraction in the (uppermost) art market supply and thus to the preservation of values.
The Great Depression
During the Great Depression of 1929, Albert Barnes timed the sale of his pharmaceutical business to start investing in art. Since 1911, he amassed a remarkable collection through timely transactions. In 1913, he acquired Picasso's “Peasants and Oxen" for $300, and he picked up dozens more canvasses for a dollar a piece. Through dogged persistence, Barnes put together 69 Cézannes-more than all the museums in Paris - as well as 60 Matisses, 44 Picassos, and 181 Rer irs in his own art investment fund. The 2,500 items in the collection are estimated to be woth between $20 and $30 billion today.
