A good time to invest in Fine Art Many of my clients have discovered the enjoyment of collecting fine art and have seen their works appreciate substantially in value. My philosophy and advise to my clients is to diversify their holdings into a broad range of financial asset classes such as fine art, stocks and bonds, real-estate and savings. The two top auction houses Sotheby’s and Christies have recently reported many new record prices for certain major artist’s works. We are all also seeing a substantial increase in volume of fine art purchases and many more of these works are selling for a million dollars or more. The global art market has been expanding at a rapid pace, with more demand coming not only from the United States, Europe and Asia, but also now from India and China. We believe this trend will continue. Obviously, as demand increases, less major museum quality art will be available. History teaches us that art values of major museum artist’s works have increased considerably over time. It now appears to be a great time to buy fine art as part of your asset portfolio. Please feel free to contact me, or one of my staff, to discuss specific works of art from our website or catalog. We can also discuss other artists’ works that are available for you to purchase for your enjoyment as well as potential appreciation in value.
