THE METHODOLOGY
A documented,
repeatable framework
Every artist in the BLI Index passes three eligibility gates and a weighted signal score. No score can override a failed gate. The methodology is fully documented and available to institutional subscribers.
GATE 1
Emerging
Not represented by a top-tier global gallery. Gallery tier is a structural test, not a fixed name list, so it does not go stale.
GATE 2
Market Formation
At least one documented sale in the past 36 months. Attributed lots are netted off. Requires a confirmed lot, not merely an indexed result.
GATE 3
Region
Origin or practice base in Africa, Latin America, Southeast Asia, or SWANA. These four regions constitute BLI's analytical mandate.
