Artwork produced by female artists comprise less than 4 per cent of art auction sales, despite a near equal share of women and men pursuing degrees in fine arts, new research by Monash University in Australia shows. Forty-two men occupy the top 0.03 per cent of the market, where 40 per cent of the sales value is concentrated.
