Members of the trade federation Conseil National du Marché de l’Art (CNMA) have published an open letter to the French government calling for changes to stop France’s art market losing out to the UK after Brexit.
The letter, signed by the chiefs of 10 associations representing dealers, auctioneers, authenticators and specialists, says that with the UK freeing itself “from certain devices carried by the European Union” this could “weaken the French position in a competitive art market economy”.
