Noah Horowitz, CEO of Art Basel, said that he sees continued spending on art and antiques by high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) despite a challenging market, bolstered by a strong appetite from Chinese buyers and an increased expenditure on emerging and female artists.
"It's such a large market with so much happening, in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and elsewhere that I think that there's continued interest. We see that most visibly in our Hong Kong fair and we can expect that to continue," said Horowitz.
