Hear Dr. Clare McAndrew, author of the Art Basel and UBS Art Market Reports and Surveys of Global Collecting, in conversation with Angelle Siyang-Le, Director of Art Basel Hong Kong, and Adrian Zürcher, Co-Head of Global Asset Allocation and Co-Head of Global Investment Management APAC in the Chief Investment Office team at UBS Global Wealth Management, as they trace a decade of transformation and the rise of the Asia-Pacific market.

This panel brings together leading voices to reflect on the seismic shifts that have shaped the art market over the past decade. Collecting has fundamentally changed as a new generation of collectors is making their imprint on the market: they are digitally savvy, female-focused, and are starting to reap the benefits of the Great Wealth Transfer. Simultaneously, the focus on historical works, particularly Surrealism, continues, as collectors seek to make sense of this current moment by looking to the past. New markets have risen, particularly in Asia - India, Thailand, and Indonesia are buoyant, with new galleries and museums opening apace.

Drawing on 10 years of The Art Basel and UBS Global Art Market Report, the speakers will share data-driven insights into the market's evolution and the forces reshaping its future. Specialists will offer firsthand perspectives on the rapid expansion of Asian collecting and the region's growing influence on global market dynamics.
