Abstract

The paper takes up the issue of international trade in art from the Global South perspective. Leaving on the margin the most important countries for the matter in question, i.e. the United States of America, some European countries (Great Britain, France, Germany, Switzerland) and China, attention is focused on the emerging economies of the southern hemisphere: South America, Africa, India, and South-Eastern Asia. The aim of the paper is to identify the value, directions, and indicators of international art trade in Global South countries. The analysis is based on the UN Comtrade database and International Trade Center (ITC) statistics. The export and import of products classified as commodity group 97 (works of art, collectors’ pieces) and antiques are analyzed.

An analysis of value of the international art trade is presented. Special attention is given to trade balance indicators (negative or positive). Based on the data gathered, the directions of international art trade are identified in the selected Global South countries. Furthermore, the concentration of exporting countries and the average distance between them and their destination countries is presented; the same is done for importing countries. The measure of concentration is based on the Herfindahl index (also known as Herfindahl–Hirschman Index, HHI, or sometimes HHI-score). The source of the data for the geographical distance between two countries is CEPII (Centre d’Etudes Prospectives et d’Informations Internationales) data. The paper also has a cognitive and empirical character. The analysis of data enables to achieve new perspectives that can be observed in the current art trade seen from the Global South. Advanced visualizations of the geographical structure of the international art trade in the discussed regions are also presented in the article.
