Investing in art

[User_480]

Would you ever consider investing in art? Sometimes it takes the death of the artist before the work gets noticed and becomes worth something so it could be something to consider if you want to buy cheap and sell it later for a big profit.

I think it could be risky unless you have a lot of money and really enjoy looking at some of it.

If I had the money I would probably buy some paintings but not the super expensive kind. Probably just something to setup in my house to decorate it. Sometimes some nice paintings can be nice decorative pieces and if they don't cost to much can be worth it. Though investing large amounts into art isn't something I would do.

I have some paintings from artists. Usually stuff that relate to rural areas, forests and general landscaping. Half of the pictures we have hanging up in the house are paintings of one thing or another.

I once bought two paintings by a prominent artist in my hoe country. The value of my paintings have gone very high, but I have no intention to sell my collections.

I like to buy aesthetic paintings for my house. But I wouldn't spend it if it was expensive. Nominal prices are affordable.

I made simple art myself and I do enjoy art and many people said that I'm very good at it  But that's pointless as you make no money from it. I lost it anyway. I do not invest into art as I can't afford to buy to invest

I like those pixelated paintings but I forgot what their called. I think that's what you mean. I'm not at all entirely sure but I assume it is.

Not actually, I think you are referring to pixel art.  I mean you kind of see a fusion of all colors in a frame.  Mainly it will be nature-related. What I like about aesthetic painting I that I love the color variations which they do in their art.

Investing in art is a good option for those who are looking to diversify their portfolio. If you have a passion for art, then it can be an excellent investment choice. If chosen wisely, an art piece can steadily appreciate in value over time and be a great store of wealth.

RE: Investing in art

I'd like to get into buying art as a means of decorating a home.   However, I am not considering investing in art.   Well, I don't know much about it, for one thing.   Anyway, for those who know the art, I know it can be very profitable.

You can of course buy art replica or art print for cheap but real hand painted art costs a lot of money.Therefore buying art is mostly reserved for people with insane amount of money.

I really see no point in investing in art as a average income holder.

However, the ultra-rich and the governments must take an initiative to invest in arts because:
1. Arts form the bedrock of our civilisation and represents what we think, what we are and what we want to do
2. It is a part of our heritage and understanding of each other

With the onset of non fungible tokens, i must say that investing in art has become much more meaningful.
