Art Is A Truly Valuable Investment Proposition
The recently concluded United Art Fair 2012 in New Delhi, India showcased diverse works of art by artists, not only from various parts of India but indeed from all around the world.
And all of these artists together had an even more diverse and eclectic range of artefacts to showcase, not only in terms of their style, but indeed their form as well, be it paintings, sculptures, and even entire cars made into an art form! As a visitor to this fair, you would no doubt have noticed the extent to which all of these diverse artefacts were priced - from a few thousand to several lakhs! Clearly, the items which were priced rather highly were meant for discerning entities with a taste for these kind of items, along with the requisite purchasing power to actually buy those items without feeling a pinch because of their high prices.
This is exactly the point which this article is making; art as a whole certainly has a vibrant market out there.
At the same time, if you are an artist yourself, remember that there are many individuals out there with an active and passionate interest in all that you have to offer.
Further, speaking purely from an art connoisseur's point of view, remember that the art which you buy today - at a certain price, would certainly be worth a whole lot more in the times to come.
Accordingly, if you have been looking at a big ticket investment to make, without the hassle of having to constantly evaluate the prevailing market price (such as in the case of real estate or share market investments), you should definitely consider art for the same.
Moreover, till the time the artefact is in your possession, imagine the prestige factor attached to being the owner of such a high profile piece of art! After all, if you have an MF Hussain or an Anjolie Ela Menon or perhaps a Tyebjee work of art hanging on the wall inside your office wagon, visitors would be dumbstruck on one hand and left completely in awe, on the other! So keep all of these factors in mind, when you are out looking for a suitable investment proposition, the next time around.
Remember that art is perhaps one of the best investment options out there at the moment and is quite likely to remain so for a long time to come; so why not make the most of it?
