The situation has changed significantly since the 1960s. Paris is still clearly the bastion of French auction sales, accounting for 90% of the country's total turnover. But half a century ago, France was at the epicentre of the global market. In 2018, France generated just 4% of global fine art auction turnover.
But even this diminished market is struggling to remain French. Dominated by the Anglo-Saxon auction houses, Sotheby's and Christie's generated 51% ( $353.5 million ) of France's total fine art auction turnover in 2018... and that total is a very small percentage of their global Fine Art business. Representing just 4% of their combined global sales, the Parisian auction houses have become almost secondary for Christie's and Sotheby's. The New York marketplace generates 15 times more turnover than Paris , London 6 times more and even Hong Kong generates nearly 3 times more than the French capital.
Meanwhile, Phillips, the world's third largest auction house by turnover, has simply decided not to organise sales in Paris ...
France woos the major British and American players in the Art Market, but it struggles to keep its own artists who prefer to go and live elsewhere. On 7 June, the New York Times drew its readers' attention to the singularity of the French pavilion at the 2019 Venice Biennale in an article entitled " ". Indeed... the 41-year-old artist, born in France , works in Antwerp, Belgium , and was revealed in 2013 by the Turner Prize, Britain's most prestigious art award.
In an interview with the French business newspaper , gallery owner Daniel Templon explains: " "
Daniel Templon justifiably blames French museums: " "
The Parisian gallerist concludes: " "
Paris possesses some of the best cultural institutions in France and in the world for that matter. From the Primitive arts to the Contemporary scene, from Antiquity to the Medieval period… Paris has it all.
The Louvre – figurehead of the entire system – is the most visited museum in the world. But, as the article explains, it has received massive financing: " ".
Moreover, in geographical terms, France's cultural policy resembles a laboratory; the provinces are used as testing grounds where young curators and young museum directors are sent to prove themselves. This year, for example, the organisation of the Lyon Biennale has been entrusted to the young curatorial team of the Palais de Tokyo , and Jean de Loisy , whose presidency of the museum has just ended, has withdrawn... to devote himself to the management of the in Paris and his excellent radio program " " on France Culture.
Artprice's recently published ranking of France's Contemporary Art museums based on Google reviews confirms the extraordinary success of Parisian museums compared to those of France's regions.
