Masterworks is the only platform that lets you invest in works by artists like Basquiat, Picasso, Banksy, and more.  \n\nAlternative Investments in Blue-Chip Art \n\nCompared to other asset classes, contemporary art investments have outperformed the S&P 500, real estate, and gold for the past 26 years with a price appreciation of 13.8%, but there has been no way to invest in it. Masterworks is the first company to offer art investment products to the investing public. \n\nContemporary Art Price \n\nMobile investments in fine art through Masterworks can be an attractive option for those looking for an alternative investment opportunity with the potential for financial gain and the added benefit of supporting the art world.  \n\nHow it works: \n- Diversify your portfolio and invest in shares of multi-million dollar paintings \n- Buy and sell shares on our trading platform \n- Receive proceeds on your investment when the painting sells \n\nWe Select The Artists\n\nOur research team uses our proprietary data to determine which artist markets have the most momentum for investing. \n\nWe Purchase the Art \n\nOur acquisitions team locates what we believe is a good piece, at a fair price, and we purchase the art for you to invest in.  \n\nWe Securitize the Artwork \n\nWe file an offering circular with the Securities and Exchange Commission allowing anyone to invest in art. \n\nWe Hold the Artwork 3-10 Years \n\nWait until we sell the painting to receive your pro rata proceeds, after our fees. \n\nSell Shares on The Trading Market \n\nYou have the option to seek to sell your art shares on our trading market.  \n\nAlternative Investment in Art \n\nOur team of art experts carefully curates and researches each artwork to ensure its authenticity, provenance, and potential value. You can invest in a piece for as little as $20 and watch your investment grow over time.
