What is an Art Investment Fund?

Believe it or not there are finance areas that invest and buy art. Some of these funds buy local artwork or blue chip type art as investment. Its a bit corporate however, it supports the arts! I was lucky enough to have a large group of paintings bought by Fidelity in Boston. This institution bought local art as an investment for the future.

Some banks do offer wealth management services that include access to art investment funds. These funds are usually managed by separate firms specializing in art investment with a curator.

Art Investment Funds: These are investment vehicles that pool money from multiple investors to purchase and manage artwork. The goal is to generate returns through appreciation of the artwork's value and potentially through selling shares in the fund

  • Bank Wealth Management: Some banks offer wealth management services for high-net-worth individuals. These services can include access to alternative investments like art funds alongside traditional stocks and bonds.

So, while the bank wouldn't directly own the art fund, it might provide a platform for its clients to invest in one.

When I was eight, our school went to a field trip to Strawbery Banke. I fell in love with it then, the gardens, the crowded turn of the century houses. It was such a beautiful escape. Now I live close by and I paint such an amazing part of Portsmouth.Strawbery Banke is the oldest neighborhood in New Hampshire to be settled by Europeans, and the earliest neighborhood remaining in the present-day city of Portsmouth. It features more than 37 restored buildings built between the 17th and 19th centuries in the Colonial, Georgian and Federal style architectures. The darkest colored house is the oldest house in the group. I have a group of historical areas that I am painting, or known as historical paintings. Look out for more!
