Behind the scenes

The Australian Art Sales Digest is now availale online

The printed version of the Australian Art Sales Digest, which records sales and prices of art in both Australian and New Zealand auction houses, has appeared for the last time. We will keep all the previous annual volumes of course, but in future it will be available to online subscribers only.

But the good news is that in partnership with our colleagues at Christchurch City Libraries, we have taken out a subscription for you. All you need is a library card and PIN, both of which are free. Simply visit the Australian Art Sales Digest page at the Library and follow the instructions.

You can search by artist or title, you can limit your search to New Zealand artists, or to New Zealand auctions. There are lots of ways of tracking the art market and you can see the rise and fall in prices over the years in various graphs, including this one, which plots price per square centimetre!
