Index. by Aspect Global
A fortnightly publication on the secondary print market, written from inside the trade.
Index. by Aspect Global is a free fortnightly publication on the secondary print market, written from inside the trade, for people who buy and live with prints.
It is curatorial intelligence, not market data, not investment tips, not catalogue browsing. One auction lot, one piece not for sale, one editor's note. Eight hundred to twelve hundred words. Every other Tuesday.
Index. is published by Aspect Global Art Ltd. The masthead carries Aspect Global by design. The voice is editorial. The proposition is curatorial.
Free to read. An optional Founding Supporter tier is available at £6 a month, with no entitlements or extras, framed as support for the work.
What you read each issue
The Note
A short editor's column on a specific subject. Personal, opinionated, one hundred and fifty to two hundred words.
One Lot
A close read of a single auction lot in the next two weeks. Edition, condition, comparables, and what the estimate signals. Not a recommendation.
One Piece
A single artwork, not for sale, looked at properly. Curatorial eye, not market eye.
Two optional modules, The Trade and From the Studio, run when they earn the space, not as filler.
