Investment Art – Are you Sceptical ?


During periods of economic uncertainty, various forms of investment suffer
significant downturns.
For the Collector / Investor Appreciating quality art is enriching and rewarding

Share markets and formal superannuation plans have been a prime example  in Australia in recent years.  Yet the high-end Art Investment Market has continued to go from strength to strength. 

In Australia in 1973, the new National Gallery bought a painting by the late Jackson Pollock titled Blue Poles for $1.3 million.  It caused an outcry from the community with many so-called ‘experts’ rallying against the purchase.  But if it was possible to buy that painting today, it would cost $150 million or more.

Throughout history, those who could afford it have invested in quality art.  For example, even if James Fairfax (or similar high-wealth Australian) lost ALL their business investments and enterprises, all real estate and other belongings, their art collections would still be worth millions.  And the value of those art collections keeps rising.

Did you know that James Fairfax AO and other preeminent collectors own works of art by Sharon Davson?  Did you know a large percentage of the paintings by her that come onto the market are purchased as investments?  Did you know that there are only about a dozen living female artists in the world whose paintings value in seven figures and that Sharon Davson is one of them?

While many remain oblivious to the potential of investment in art, others only delve into the highest assured realms of past masters.  Acquiring art by a well-renowned living artist reaps the best benefits when that artist is proactive and influential.

$ Value Changes over the Decades

The value of Davson’s paintings has consistently doubled within five years for three decades, driven by defined events in the artist’s career.  This value rise has recently become more rapid.

Rare Paintings

Davson paints for a cause.  And the success of her art enables those causes to be fulfilled.  Since most of her paintings are pre-sold, she has very few personally owned art works.  These circumstances mean her work is rare, sought-after and highly valued.

Since her first sell-out exhibition in 1982, Davson has only created 100 or so paintings.  By this time, other professional artists have created many times more!  However, it is her art sales that have funded her life, charitable initiatives and causes for over 30 years.

Her art is purchased by collectors who appreciate the uniqueness of each painting, knowing only a few people the world over can own a Davson.  With each work meticulously authenticated, ownership becomes an enjoyable privilege.
