In recent years, art investment has gained traction among investors seeking to diversify their portfolios. We've seen this across contemporary art as a tangible asset, Historically, art has been appreciated for its aesthetic value, but today, it is increasingly recognized as a tangible asset that can yield substantial returns. With the volatility of traditional financial markets, many investors are turning to alternative investments like fine art to enhance their investment strategies.
Unlike stocks or bonds, art is a physical asset that holds inherent value. Beyond pure investment, art adds value to your life everyday. You don’t hang a share certificate on your wall to improve your home. Each piece is unique and non fungible, offering some resistance to market fluctuations and economic downturns.

Born July 9, 1937 in Bradford, Yorkshire, David Hockney showed an early interest in art, developing his skills at Bradford College of Art before joining London's Royal College of Art. By this time, he had already begun to make a name for himself with his distinctive style and innovative approach. In 1961 he was part of a Young Contemporaries exhibition at the Whitechapel Art Gallery in London, an event that marked the dawning of the Pop Art era in the United Kingdom.
Harland’s background as a writer and his interest in canonical authors such as Ernest Hemingway inform his work, and his works have a canny resemblance with artists such as Mark Rothko. When one removes the text, what remains behind often resembles many of Rothko’s masterpieces. Millers works are also unique because they often will combine text and images to comment on the frequent disconnect between representation and the reality of our everyday life.
The global fascination with Townley’s work stems from the two interconnected aspects of his work. His portraits of icons show us the surface of power, fame and money while his extraordinary oil paintings are its dark underbelly. For more than a decade, Townley has explored the unconscious drives that compel the richest and most powerful people on earth to wrestle with an insatiable hunger for more. His visceral Bankers, their heads and bodies bursting apart in a furious explosion of energy, have been compared to Bacon’s popes. They are an assault on the canvas and this extraordinary fury is a constant feature of his oil paintings. From the thick, layered textures to the flood of red, black and crimson that bleed out of the frame that seeks to contain them, these works capture the shamanic journey into a psychological underworld that elevates the few above the many. They sink into the depths and emerge with untold riches only to dive again and again and again. This is the beating heart of creativity and the ferocious beauty of those who push desire to its limits. Townley is the "The guy who paints the bankers" A small original will fetch $166,000.
French multidisciplinary artist and renowned sculptor, Richard Orlinski has established himself for over 15 years as one of the major figures in contemporary global art. Inspired by pop culture and wild animals, he is the creator of powerful and colourful works, exemplified by his iconic sculpture Wild Kong, a symbol of his iconic series Born Wild. Trained at the École des Beaux-Arts, he has explored various media, from design to sculpture, including live performance. A lover of art in all its forms, sculptor Richard Orlinski challenges preconceived ideas and does not hesitate to break down the barriers of artistic expression. Richard Orlinski has no reason to be ashamed of his first clients. Indeed, Sharon Stone and Pharrell Williams own works by the French artist in their private collections. The success does not stop there as, in 2014, his prices soared. Richard Orlinski sold his work depicting a pin-up bursting from the mouth of a golden crocodile for 15 million euros.
The works of Peter Doig are characterized by their universal relevance and contemporary atmosphere. With his fiercely eclectic style, the painter is able to impressively depict diverse motifs – from winter sports in the Swiss Alps to carefree life in the Caribbean. His emotional imagery combined with his ability to skillfully stage subjects never fails to impact the viewer. Both landscapes and figures come into focus as Doig intertwines art historical and personal references into his compositions. The Zermatt series was not Doig’s first exploration of winter motifs – he painted snowy Canadian landscapes in the 1990s. His enthusiasm for the alpine village of Zermatt and his friendship with Swiss artist Heinz Julen resulted in an extended stay between 2020 and 2021. He drew inspiration from his surroundings as well as ski resort advertisements to create his own interpretation of winter activities.
