In this article, we will discuss why art is a good investment and provide some key advice for beginners on how to get started.

Why is Art a Valuable Investment?

 

A long-term reliable investment

 

One of the main reasons why art is a good investment is because it holds its value over time. Unlike stocks or other investments, art does not tend to go up and down in value based on market fluctuations. This was especially true during the 2020 pandemic where other markets fluctuated significantly while the art market remained stable. The changes were not felt because the value of investment grade art is independent of most external events and so has a tendency to steadily increase as the years go by.

 

Although art is considered a reliable long-term asset class, it is also important to know that it is a non-liquid asset which means that it is not something you can quickly exchange for cash. To liquidate your art asset means having an appraisal, working with an auction house or art consultant to find an appropriate buyer all of which can take time. Many art investors therefore keep art collections as part of a diversified portfolio, and as a part of their estate to be passed down to future generations.
