In a quote that is sure to add to the raging interest in Contemporary art, Blacktock’s CEO Larry Fink calls Contemporary art a great store of wealth:
“The two greatest stores of wealth internationally today is contemporary art….. and I don’t mean that as a joke, I mean that as a serious asset class,” said Fink. “And two, the other store of wealth today is apartments in Manhattan, apartments in Vancouver, in London.”
[…] “It’s become much more accessible for global families worldwide to store wealth outside their country,” said Fink. “And they don’t have to own gold.”
