Art Collecting is not only an aesthetic to convey who you are, where your passions lie, and what mood you want to create in your home or office, but it can also be an investment. When people think of investments, typically what comes to mind are stocks, bonds, real estate, commodities and such. Yet a truly diversified portfolio will include fine art.
The beauty of collecting fine art is that it reflects your interests, while appreciating in monetary worth. That is primarily if you choose to collect “Blue Chip” art, the tried and true established artists and/or the secondary market, – referring to resale of pre-owed works of art that have entered the secondary market through auctions from private collectors or museums.
The joys of collecting art also take place in buying young and emerging artists that show great potential or whose work contributes to an overall arching theme or aesthetic for your living space. Gertrude Stein and her brother Leo did exactly that. Her determination and love of art lead to collecting original manuscripts and artwork from Hemingway, Gauguin, Renoir, Cézanne, Picasso, Toulouse-Lautrec, Matisse and more. Her collection has become one of the world’s most important collections of her era.
One of the beauties of collecting art is, you can cultivate the work of young emerging artists of your era, and they can become so significant in your lifetime that the collection is truly a marker and essence of the age… With time it is something that collector’s on the secondary market seek out because of the cultural significance or cache of the artists – That’s where your investment pays off.
