The art market in Guadeloupe
The art market in Guadeloupe is relatively dynamic, although less developed than in some more central regions, such as Paris. Guadeloupe has a rich and diverse art scene.
Art galleries and art events are present in the island's main cities, such as Pointe-à-Pitre and Basse-Terre, as well as in more touristy areas such as Saint-François and Sainte-Anne.
There are collectors on the island who often buy from galleries but face difficulties in reselling their possessions in the event of an inheritance, a move or any other change that may occur.
