  artnet Relaunches Market-Leading Database Product
  • Fine Art Auctions Database Now Streamlined and More Efficient
New York, NY -- artnet today released a much-awaited new version of its renowned Fine Art Auctions Database, the expert's tool for valuing fine art. In its first major improvement in two years, the Database's new features provide users with an improved graphical user interface, enhanced search criteria, greater ease in locating artist names, total number of results and search criteria visible on each page, the ability to conduct searches across multiple media, and easier navigation between result pages. The relaunch was the result of input from a wide range of heavy users over an extended period of time, who have also tested the enhanced research tool.

Unique in the industry, the Fine Art Auctions Database is the definitive source of fine art auction prices, containing twelve years of auction records, over two million lots and more than 176,000 artists. Fully illustrated and ranging from Old Masters to Contemporary, the Database is the industry standard for auction results, enabling art buyers and sellers to transact with confidence. Its customers include the prominent auction houses, museums, art dealers, art collectors, educational institutions and other art professionals.

"Experienced users will find these improvements can streamline their searches" says Karen Amiel, Vice President of Content Development and Promotion, who oversaw the project. "New users will find the choosing of search parameters to be much more intuitive." The improved and streamlined interface offers a variety of new features designed to enhance artnet's position as The World's Art Marketplace, by making the art market more transparent, easily accessible and more efficient for artnet's steadily increasing subscriber base.
