“Curating Contemporary Art” Seminar Program, realized by Open Dialogue İstanbul & Akbank Sanat in unisson, continues with Dr. Alessia Zorloni’s seminar entitled “Trends & Evolution Of The Market & Its Position In The World Today”.
This seminar offers a unique opportunity to grasp the complexities of the international art world and its markets and
provides on overview of its actors and how they interact. The goal of this seminar is to present the visual art system from an interdisciplinary perspective by analyzing the behavior of its main players, both on the demand (visitors, collectors, museums, corporate) and on the supply side (artists, art dealers, auction houses and fairs). Students will gain insight into the current state of both the primary and secondary markets while learning about the major players and how they interact, including museums, galleries, dealers, auction houses, private collectors, art advisors and curators.
Alessia Zorloni, PhD, is a lecturer, author, and art wealth advisor, specialized in contemporary art and collectible markets. She is Adjunct Professor of Art Market at IULM University, Milan, Italy.
She also regularly holds lessons on the protection and valuation of family art collections at the Italian Family Officer Association (AIFO). Beside her academic work, Dr. Zorloni founded Art Wealth Advisory, an advisory practice based in Milan, that assists clients with an extensive range of services, such as art consulting, art market research, program development, and art related wealth & legacy planning. Dr. Zorloni has authored over 30 publications, including the books “Il Mercato dell’arte. Guida pratica per consulenti finanziari e private banker” (FrancoAngeli 2021), “Musei
privati. La passione per l’arte contemporanea nelle collezioni di famiglia e d’impresa” (Egea 2019), “Art Wealth Management. Managing of Private Art Collections” (Springer 2016) and “The Economics of Contemporary Art. Markets, Strategies and Stardom”
