Investing an inspiration The art market in South Africa grew substantially since the early 90s. The country wide interest in art lead to art becoming a favorable commodity amongst investors. Due to the limited amount of master painters in South Africa and the difference in value of our art and those of overseas artists, SA art appreciated at 20 annually during the 90s and more than 60 annually since 2000. Projections are that this trend will be sustained over the next couple of years due to the following factors Historical value, Low price investment, Demand for good art, Safe investment,International interest, World trade possibilities, Personal enrichment Banking on young talent- Limited cash can sometimes be your best friend in the art world, because you have less money you may take more of a chance and buy something just because it catches your eye and you can afford it. There is no science to knowing what will become valuable over time. Its one reason to ensure that you buy what you like.
