Cabinet Sévigné supports art-market professionals in their strategic decisions. We clarify the dynamics shaping the sector and help clients define appropriate strategies. Our work relies on continuous analysis of the primary and secondary markets, combined with close observation of cultural developments. We intervene when significant decisions must be made, whether they concern gallery leadership, the evaluation of an artist, the direction of an acquisition, or the need to understand a transforming segment. Each engagement is developed according to your context and objectives. We deliver a robust diagnostic and provide directly actionable recommendations.
We conduct comprehensive studies that analyse the functioning of a specific market segment : demand evolution, cultural dynamics, positioning of key players, interactions between the primary and secondary markets, institutional influence, and development prospects. These reports provide a solid foundation for anticipating trends, preparing strategic decisions, or validating commercial and curatorial orientations.
We deliver detailed analyses retracing the construction, visibility, and future prospects of an artist’s career. The study examines institutional milestones, primary-market structure, supporters, key events that shaped the trajectory, surrounding cultural dynamics, and the signals likely to influence future recognition. These reports are particularly valuable for galleries, collectors, and foundations seeking to assess an artistic career or to define a strategic direction.
We conduct in-depth examinations of a gallery or a group of galleries to understand their model, position within the cultural landscape, networks, artistic coherence, institutional visibility, and influence. These reports assess the rationale of a roster, the relevance of a programme, or the effectiveness of an economic model.
We analyse the specificities of a local or international art scene, whether in a city, a country, or a broader territory. Our work covers networks of galleries, institutions, fairs, cultural centres, curatorial dynamics, public policies, and commercial practices, offering a nuanced understanding of the context in which the actors of a territory operate.
Each report is delivered as a structured document, accompanied by a clear synthesis and a strategic interpretation designed to translate the analysis into actionable insights. All data and recommendations remain strictly confidential and are produced with complete independence.
