Training

The training is scheduled to last five days, from July 10 to 14, 2023. Participants are invited to follow the course in its entirety. It will be taught by about fifteen speakers, specialists in economics, finance, economic history, art history, sociology, law, and the digital humanities—all internationally recognized in their fields.

The training will include theoretical and methodological interventions, open to confrontation and exchange of views.

The training will alternate theoretical presentations built around concepts and themes central to the analysis of art markets. Specialists from different disciplinary fields will present their approaches in dialogue with colleagues from different backgrounds. Following the theoretical talks and discussion, workshops will be devoted to methodological approaches in the form of interactive workshops offering practical exercises.

The program builds on the accomplishments of the two first editions in terms of format and approach, but the sessions offered at the 2023 edition have been brought up to date to cover recent developments in scholarships and the market. We have also invited a number of different speakers who will share their views and expertise. Lastly, the fieldtrips to the Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga (National Museum of Fine Art) and the Palácio do Correio Velho auction house in Lisbon will give the participants a rare opportunity to visit and interact with local art (market) institutions.

A certificate of attendance will be provided so that doctoral candidates can have their participation validated by their doctoral school.
