ACCESS THE MARKET

When a New York City developer purchased an untitled painting for $19,000 in 1983, he wasn’t expecting a 5,798x return on his investment. But that's exactly what happened when he sold the Basquiat work for a stunning $110,000,000 in 2017. Now, everyday investors are unlocking access to the very same market thanks to the blue-chip art investing platform, Masterworks [6]. When Masterworks sells a painting – like the 16 it's already sold – investors reap their portion of the profits.
