The Weather Forecast series captures the cultural temperature of key locations ahead of major global art events. Previous locations include Hong Kong, Singapore, Basil, Turin, Brazil and more. Drawing inspiration from John Maynard Keynes’ concept of animal spirits (the emotional mindsets that drive markets), these conversations uncover how emotional factors like confidence shape the art landscape.
AWITA Forecasts are sponsored by Hallett Independent: a specialist firm of knowledgeable private client and art insurance brokers with a shared enthusiasm for art.
