Is Art An Asset or An Investment?

Sponsored by Dentons Cohen & Grisby Law Firm and curated by Emillions Art founder and global art consultant Marlissa Gardner, Is Art An Asset or An Investment? explores how art investment changes with time and why the rise in NFTs is meaningful today. The exhibition traces the evolution of art investment from the Old Masters (artists from the 1300s up to the 1800s) to the rebirth of classical culture in the early and high Renaissance (1400-1500) with artworks by Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael to the splendor and flourish for God during the Baroque period (1600-1750) when artists like Rembrandt, Peter Paul Rubens and Caravaggio weren’t afraid to use color and movement in their work. The exhibition includes modern and contemporary master artworks from Dario Campinale, Layla Love and John Robbolino into the mid-19th century artworks extending into postmodern paintings of the 20th century up until 1970s Pop Art and conceptual art by artist Robin Austin to 21st century NFTs (non-fungible tokens), an exciting new technology to sell digital art.
