Behind Fred
Behind Fred stands the eye of Frédéric de Senarclens, who advises private collectors and institutions from his art advisory office in Geneva. A former gallerist in Geneva and Singapore, he is one of the few art dealers to study how new technologies are reshaping the art world, a subject he teaches.
Fred works hand in hand with artificial intelligence: every report draws on several AI models that search and analyse what the web reveals about an artist's market, read through Fred's method. AskFred puts twenty-five years of market judgement in your hands, and aims to be the assistant of every serious art collector.
The methodology
135 points. Six dimensions.
Every artist in Fred's catalogue is scored on six market signals, refined over years of secondary-market practice. Together, they show where an artist's market stands today: how far it sits from its peak, how solid its foundations are, and what could move it next.
Past market peak
/25Where the artist sat at their last cycle high.
Market decline
/25Discount from peak — a hidden inefficiency.
Cultural solidity
/30Museum presence, scholarship, retrospectives.
Catalyst potential
/25Upcoming shows, foundation moves, books.
Press signal
/15Critic recognition and editorial momentum.
Gallery defender
/20Active primary gallery defending prices.
