The global fight against Covid-19 has affected everyone's life, from personal health to job prospects.
At this point, no one knows the full impact coronavirus will have on the world and how long its repercussions will last. This uncertainty, together with reduced mobility, has had a direct effect on commerce. The auction industry is no exception.
Barnebys has received many inquiries about how the art and auction industry is coping with the crisis. Since 2011, Barnebys has helped facilitate the digitalization of the auction industry worldwide. With 3 million users and affiliated auction houses in all the major markets, Barnebys is the world's leading search site for art, design, antiques and collectibles.
This week, our founder Pontus Silfverstolpe was invited to the podcast ArtTactic to talk on the subject. If you are interested in hearing what Covid-19 means for the digital auction climate and for the industry in the long term, listen here .
We hope for everyone's health and wellbeing during this difficult time.
