Success in the timing - “supply & demand”
Instead of buying art, buy an investment art and, good timing can help investor’s returns. The secret to great investment is good timing and long-term results. We advice to follow your heart, buy the one you love, the best you can afford and most typical artwork of an artist you admire. The celebrated artists Gloria Petyarre (b.1945-) and Ningura Napurrula (B.1938-), one of the most famous artists represented in the Europe’s most important public museum Musée du quai Branly in Paris both are getting blind. Health Nyurapayia Nampitjinpa (Mrs Bennett) (b.1938) as well as Kathleen Petyarre is rapidly declining (represented in National Gallery of Australia
, Art Gallery of NSW (Sydney), National Gallery of Victoria, Queensland National Art Gallery, Museum & Art Gallery Northern Territory and around the world. These artists work is in high demand and as to “supply & demand” so the prices have to go up without delay, please visit our site and to make purchase please contact us,
 
Art Market update
The performance of the Australian art market is consistent and matches with the positive record of investment art. Famous artist’s works have reached the new highs. David Boyd "Burke & Wills Bed Down for the Night" (minor work) fetched $54,000 against the pre-sale expectation $10,000 - $15,000, to view the whole article click here.   At one time auction houses were wholesaling art, at present they are mostly retailing playing critical role in the art economy. Arthur Boyd Shoalhaven at Dusk Joel Fine Art lot No: 56  size 30 x 21cm, oil on copper
priced: $60,000-$80,000   plus 20% buyers premium and also GST.
 
Fine Art is “Super" Good
Art is pleasurable and can offer a better return than other investments. When setting an investment strategy you may look at fine art as one of your premier assets. For collectors who are looking at alternative tax arrangements and considering a work of art as an asset in a Do-It-Yourself Super Fund can invest 5% of the total Super-Fund in art. Easier than juggling percentages of the supper funds between 'Cash', ‘shares’ 'Local Equities', 'International Equities', 'Bonds' and 'Real Estate'. It makes good sense to seriously consider 'a work of art' as an asset.
 
Art investment Recount
In the commodity driven world an original work of art is desirable for its uniqueness. The famous artist’s works perform usually better than a share market and give more pleasure than real-estate. David Boyd (born 1924) art has experienced strong growth
among investors in Australia and around the world, view David Boyd top-quality works on our site. Below art value performance compared against pre-sale expectation at the major Australian auction houses in 2007.
