Art Market Indices
A family of deterministic indices tracking the financial performance of art, segmented by category, price tier, geography, and artist cohort. Including the LiveArt AI Valuation Index — the only art market index calculated using forward-looking AI valuations.
Capabilities
LiveArt All Art Index
Market-cap weighted, covering all artists with 5+ auction sales. The broadest measure of art market performance. Monthly updates, back-tested to 1986.
Segment Indices
Contemporary, Post-War, Impressionist & Modern, Ultra-Contemporary, Photography, Prints & Multiples. Each with its own universe definition, weighting, and methodology document.
AI Valuation Index
The only art market index using AI mark-to-market valuations (LiveArt Estimate™) rather than historical auction prices alone. Forward-looking — estimates the current value of works that haven't sold recently. No other provider can calculate this.
Top 100 Market Cap
Tracking the 100 most valuable artist markets. Market-cap weighted. The art market equivalent of a blue-chip equity index.
Published Methodologies
Every index comes with a 5–10 page published methodology document covering universe definition, inclusion/exclusion criteria, weighting, rebalancing frequency, data sources, and calculation formula. Required by Bloomberg, LSEG, and ICE.
Financial Product Ready
Index methodologies designed to serve as benchmarks for art-linked structured notes, ETPs, and fixed index annuities. Can be co-branded with ICE or S&P DJI as calculation agent.
