Beyond Provenance

Art holds more than beauty.

It holds conflict, legacy, and power.

We trace how fine works move through collections,

courts, and capital–turning hidden stories into visible value.

What We Track
in the Art World

While auction houses chase past sales, we focus on what's

unfolding now—inside contracts, courtrooms, and shifting global policies. 

Avallonn evaluates fine art not just as culture, but as a legal and

financial asset too often overlooked. We track disputes, ownership claims, liquidity signals, and collector behavior—transforming

fragmentation into insight.

Ownership Disputes

What happens when art belongs to too many?

Heir, government, and collector disputes over stolen and displaced works have turned much of the art world into a battlefield. These conflicts shape access, legitimacy, and long-term value.

Provenance Gaps

When documents disappear, authenticity craters.

A missing invoice, a broken chain of custody, an era unaccounted for—these gaps disrupt institutional interest and complicate valuation. In the art world, silence in a record isn't neutral—it's a red flag. 

Collector & Institutional Behavior

Who shapes the future of ownership?

We analyze who's acquiring, divesting, or hedging—and why. Patterns in bidding, institutional rotation, and geopolitical taste reveal where value is moving next.

Litigation Activity

When a courtroom becomes the gallery.

From authenticity challenges to seizure orders, we track legal activity that impacts saleability, pricing, and trust  across the fine art value chain.

Asset Liquidity Trends

Can you own a masterpiece—and still move it?

From tokenization, to museum lock-ups, we examine resale velocity, fractional ownership, and how artworks enter or escape circulation. Liquidity signals reveal more than price—they reveal freedom, constraint, and future utility.

Cultural Value  vs.
Capital Value

What's priceless—and what's just priced?

We interrogate the gap between emotional weight and economic worth. In the art world, belief is value—but whose belief sets the price?
