To minimise the risks inherent in art investments, pioneering features have been built in, supported by strategic partnerships. Swiss-based company, 4Art-Technologies, is partnering with A R T C E L S to generate digital signatures that provide cutting-edge authentication for its art assets, while Swiss blockchain company Assetyze brings into the partnership the blockchain based solution to create a secure digital token.
The incorporation of authenticity, ownership and asset inventory information into a single digital token is set to introduce a ‘Gold Standard’ of transparency and trust into a market plagued by poor data quality in connection with tangible assets.
A R T C E L S will also afford subscribers the opportunity to enjoy their investments at exclusive art events held multiple times each year, with London, Los Angeles and Shanghai already planned for 2020 and up to 10 exhibitions by 2022. Co-founder Elio D’ Anna explains, “…as a diverse investment, investing in art through A R T C E L S is both secure and engaging because there’s also the aspect of enjoying your investment at public exhibitions, as well as private viewings with other shareholders. It’s a pleasure that’s only comparable to collecting classic cars, watches and fine wines.”
