What makes this slump different from the last, he says, is that there are still buyers in the market. Almost everyone who was interviewed for this special report said that the biggest problem at the moment is not a lack of demand but a lack of good work to sell. The three Ds — death, debt and divorce — still deliver works of art to the market. But anyone who does not have to sell is keeping away, waiting for confidence to return.
他指出，使得这次下滑不同于上一次的是，目前市场上依然有买家。几乎每位接受这次特别报道采访的人都说，目前最大的问题不是缺少需求，而是缺少可供销售的好作品。3D因素——死亡、债务、离婚——依然向艺术品市场输送作品。但是那些不必急于出售作品的人正在远离艺术品市场，等待信心的回归。
