When art becomes a better way to invest than real estate

It is well known that real estate was once considered one of the best ways to invest your money. However, in recent years, art has become increasingly popular with investors. What explains this enthusiasm for art? Why are more and more people considering art a better way to invest than real estate? This is what we will explore in this article.

Why is art a good investment?

First of all, art is an alternative form of investment. This means that it is an option that does not depend on traditional financial markets. Art does not follow the same trends as the stock market or bonds, making it less risky. Additionally, art is rare and unique, making it more valuable over time.

Art versus real estate

Art and real estate: mutual enhancement

Art can also enhance real estate by giving it a history or a soul. This is the case, for example, of the Louis Vuitton Foundation in Paris. This building, designed by architect Frank Gehry, houses a collection of modern and contemporary art belonging to Bernard Arnault, boss of the LVMH group. The Louis Vuitton Foundation has become an emblematic place for contemporary art, but it has also become a symbol of architectural innovation.

Art can also help sell real estate by making it more attractive. Real estate developers often use artwork to decorate the common areas of their buildings, to make them more warm and welcoming. Artwork can also be used to decorate show apartments, to give an idea of ​​the ambiance and lifestyle that future owners will find there.

Art or real estate?

Both areas require a strong knowledge of market trends and developments. Whether you are an art collector or a real estate investor, it is essential to understand market movements to be able to make the right decisions.

I am waiting for you

He had shyly taken his place on the bench facing me and a few meters away. He had just left the inn with his glass of red wine in his hand. He seemed to be fleeing the noise and internal din of the inn. The antique metal and wood bench seemed ill-proportioned as he sat on the end of it. His posture suggested that he was waiting for something or rather someone, or maybe even both. His gestures, his movements, his gaze spoke volumes about the spirit with which he had come to isolate himself there as if to prepare or adapt to a future situation. His whole appearance, his gestures as he sipped from his glass of red wine suggested that many…

Eleven eleven

Eleven o'clock eleven... 11+11... the trouble of a mirror hour. You've probably already experienced that strange moment when you look at the clock and discover a mirror hour. In the same register 10:22 p.m., 4:44 a.m., 5:55 a.m.… Depending on the clock, if it is digital, we have the sensation of being in front of a casino slot machine and have obtained a winning combination. When you do research on this subject, the explanations are diverse and varied, ranging from coded communication from angels to the most contradictory numerology depending on the site that will try to explain its meaning to you.  

However, the subject remains troubling, because I have already experienced a succession of these mirror hours in a very short time, going from 10:22 p.m. to 3:33 a.m. then 5:55 a.m. and 4:16 p.m. For some it's a coincidence without...

Complicity

You must have undoubtedly already experienced this, being installed deep in your foggy thoughts and observing your surrounding environment mechanically without any particular idea or fixed idea and allowing yourself to be invaded by a sort of ambient serenity.

Some time ago, during a few days off, my wife and I were sitting side by side on a sandy beach, enjoying the light breeze of the end of the day and the expanse of fine sand...
