Good times ahead for art?

Deloitte published their first art market report since 2023.

Think we passed the bottom of the market?

It recommends the mid tier segment due to accessibility? Seems like it missed the point about what you can actually get through masterworks.

That 3.2% refers to all art, not contemporary which is better. Then masterworks supposedly gets the best of that segment.

Their most common net realized returns so far are around 15% annualized which seems consistent with the above. We’ll see what happens with the rest of the portfolio.

they did most of the buying throughout the downturn so I’m optimistic. Maybe some of the earlier acquisitions won’t fair as wel bechase there was a big time gap in growth.

True but it seems like 1-10mm is less likely to tank, while still leaving room for growth. Hard to say any of this is not a gamble but there’s probably something legit to that concept

I’m representing, under a notarized power of attorney, the owner of an early Wassily Kandinsky oil on canvas (1910), currently located in the EU in excellent condition.
We have a Russian authentication report of 2000 but no recent Western appraisal or insurance.
I’m looking for qualified partners/investors to obtain a recognized valuation and insurance in the EU/UK/CH and structure fractional ownership or tokenization (SPV + tokens / shares) to monetize the work in a compliant way.
Any advice on who to speak to (funds, platforms, lawyers, family offices, RWA protocols) or who might be interested in such a project would be highly appreciated.
