ART MARKET HAND IN HAND WITH COUNTRY’S PROSPERITY!!

IF YOU ASKED ANYONE THIRTY YEARS AGO; WHICH ART SECTION TO INVEST IN?
THEY WOULD HAVE SAID IMPRESSIONIST ART AS IT WAS THE MARKET FOR ALL MAJOR INVESTORS AT THE TIME. IF YOU ASKED ANYONE FIFTEEN YEARS AGO THE SAME QUESTION, THEY WOULD HAVE SAID CONTEMPORARY ART.
THUS, MYSELF TEN YEARS AGO I TRIED TO GET OUT OF SOME OF MY INVESTMENTS IN GREEK ART BUT IT WAS TOO LATE FOR THAT. I DIVERSIFIED A LITTLE IN ART OF FAR EAST WITH GOOD RESULTS BUT I STILL HOPE THAT THE COUPLE OF INVESTMENTS LEFT IN THE PORTOFOLIO WITH BRING IN HOME REWARDING RETURNS FOR MY FAITH IN THE ART OF THE AREA. NOTHING IS EASY IN ANY INVESTMENT BUT I AM HOIPEFUL THAT THE ART OF VIETNAM WILL CONTINUE TO GROW AND STRENGTHEN.
VIETNAMESE ART BY TRI MINH
THE FUTURE TRADE AND FUTURE GDP BELONGS TO SOUTH EAST ASIA, NOT EUROPE, NOT USA. THESE AREAS HAVE HAD THEIR DEVELOPMENT FOR DECADES, WHEREAS THE GIANTS OF ASIA ARE JUST WAKING UP TOP THE POSSIBILITIES THEIR OWN PEOPLE OFFER, THEIR TIGER ECONOMIES OFFER AND WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS FOR THEM.
THE SUN IS RISING IN THE EAST AND INDEED IS SETTING IN THE WEST. THE FORECASTS ARE STAGGERING FOR THE PEOPLE OF CHINA AND THE AREA AROUND THEM. INDIA IS A LAND OF PROMISES AND THE PEOPLES OF THESE COUNTRIES ARE WORKING HARD TO CATCH UP WITH THE REST OF DEVELOPED WORLD. THE FRUIT IS THERE TO SEE BUT THE FUTURE IS EVER BETTER, INDEED MUCH BETTER.
UNFORTUNATELY WE KNOW LITTLE OF THEIR ART AND THE POTENTIAL BUT DONT BE DISCOURAGES IF YOU HAVE NO ART OF THIS AREA YET. TIME WORKS FOR THESE AREAS NOW AND SO IT DOES FOR THEIR ART.
BARGAIN ART OF THE MOMENT
VASILIS ZENETZIS, MONASTIRAKI, ATHENS
LEON KALOGEROPOULOS, MARINE ART
FINALLY, GREEK ART HAS BEEN SELLING AT 50% CAPACITY AND FOR ABOUT 30% OF ITS REAL VALUE. IT TAKES NOT A GENIUS TO THINK THAT BARGAINS ARE THERE TO BE HAD, PROVIDED YOU HAVE MONEY TO SPARE FOR 10-20 YEARS INVESTMENT.
EITHER IN SOUTH EAST ASIA MARKETS OR EUROPEAN MARKETS, THERE ARE MAJOR BARGAINS TO BE HAD !!!
