An old wisdom among investors in times of high inflation reads: "Invest in factual investments" . Works of art also fall into this category, since they are not only an important part of our culture and identity, but for many people in unsteady times an increasingly worthwhile investment and investment - especially Blue Chip Art .

Not only our soul benefits from wonderful art, but also our wallet.

A shadowy existence long, this asset class has recently been able to record an enormous influx. Not only the excellent yields of selected art classes, but also the technological innovations and art trading companies around NFTs , tokenization and proportionate art investments (Art Shares) , which also gives small investors access to lucrative investments in art.

Art as an investment - successfully invest in art

Art investment is a unique combination of passion for art and desire for financial return. prestige factor differentiates the investment in art from other forms of investment. In addition, the emotional value and the social importance of art investment can further increase the attractiveness of this form of investment.

The advantages of such an investment at a glance:

  • Representative power of art / prestige factor
  • Higher quality of life / emotional value
  • Persistence / safety of the system / low risk of value.
  • Total loss almost excluded
  • Long -term investment and the possibility of passing on to children
  • New social contacts and insight into the world of artists and artists
  • Promotion and support of cultural life

Thanks to new technologies, people with a small budget can now invest in high -quality works of art by renowned artists - a promising investment for art lovers and private investors alike.

Investors of private and business nature are increasingly interested in alternative investments, including works of art by well -known artists who can achieve a stable or even high return. Auction houses and banks apply for these investments and promise a strong increase in value on the art market.

There are also art dealers who act works on an up -and -coming artist - with a higher risk profile, but also the chance of a higher return.

In general, the following picture in comparison to shares, gold and real estate arises at the art market for contemporary art in terms of performance in comparison to shares, gold and real estate:

Blue chip art more profitable than stocks, real estate, gold, wine and inflation

Hardly any investment class offers such rewarding propagation as investing in Blue Chip Art . Not only is it profitable, but it also represents a safe and permanent investment. Since the art market hardly correlates compared to the stock market, it becomes particularly interesting in fluctuating times.

The art market is not only huge, but also offers considerable potential for future growth. Since 1995, the TOP100 artist's return exceeded that of the US S&P 500 stock index.

The Blue Chip Art Index from Artprice, the Artprice100 © , , has even grown by 1.8 % in the Corona crisis year ... a year that was characterized by almost complete lack of international trade fairs, but also by the forced transition from galleries and auction houses to a digital modus operandi. And yet ... the prices of the 100 best artists in the art market (according to auction sales) continued to increase in 2021 by a considerable 36%.

Since 2000, the prices of the TOP100 artists of Artprice Index have risen by fabulous +589 % (in comparison: the S&P 500 only increased by +224 % in the same period.

Therefore, for 86 % of asset managers Art is an integral part of a well -diversified portfolio. "Blue Chip Art" is recommended . Similar to the stock market, Blue Chip Art refers to the works of the most renowned artists, whose position in the auction market has held at the top over the years.

The need for these world -famous artists is steadily increasing, which is why the prospects for increasing value and resale value will continue to be extremely positive in the future.

The old problem: buy only very wealthy people reserved

It is obvious that the most important paintings and most important artists such as Gerhard Richter or Andy Warhol also achieve the highest prices for art auctions and on the art market. This excludes most people from a possible purchase per se. Only a few wealthy ones can apply sums in the six to nine-digit range for a work of art.

So far, it has therefore been difficult for most people to invest in valuable art. Beyond the price hurdle, you also had to be well networked in the art scene so that you have access to high -quality art.

Investments in art were therefore only possible for people who have the corresponding capital, network and knowledge. This was an enormous hurdle that made it difficult to get started with the art market.

The new solution: art shares and tokenization

Analogous to the stock market, which enables the proportionate acquisition of successful companies, this principle also jumped to the art market.

A small number of companies and trading platforms use the possibilities of Art Shares and Tokenization and offers lucrative investment opportunities for the broad population.

1. Masterworks - buy shares in Blue Chip Art

Innovative online platforms such as Masterworks now allow everyone to participate in the strong returns of the top artists-regardless of budget and financial resources.

Masterworks is the only platform where you can invest in works of art worth several million dollars of artists such as Basquiat , Picasso , Banksy and others.

the annualized internal return minus all fees and costs, calculated from the final date of the primary offer to the date of completing the sale. The IRR may not be a reference to the master works paintings that have not yet been sold, and the performance in the past is not a reference to future results.

2. Art trade - digital shares in art through tokenization and blockchain

Arttrade also revolutionizes access to the art market for all users. With the help of the blockchain , digital shares in works of art are , which map the total value of the respective work of art.

Investors can buy these tokens and therefore invest in works of art online from a minimum amount of 250 euros online and benefit from the performance. Thanks to the use of blockchain technology, Arttrade has created the technology process for proportional art investment.

Token are digital certificates that are stored in a blockchain using technologies such as DLT, which is also used for cryptocurrencies. The blockchain technology can secure assets and right-wing manipulation-proof digitally and decentrally. This technology offers investors the opportunity to invest in assets in a safe way that you can buy or sell flexibly on a secondary market (Q1/2023).
