Do you ever wonder what art really is?
Many artists have different opinions on that. Gustav Klimt said that art is the line you draw around your thoughts. Vincent Van Gogh used to say that art derives directly from the artist’s soul. Maybe art is just art. It is what it is.
But, have you ever wondered if souls and thoughts have a price? If so, what would really be their value?
Let’s put aside philosophy for a minute and let’s talk about numbers.
Taking Klimt and Van Gogh as examples, what would have been the return on investment if you had the chance to invest in them at the start of their careers? The answer is simple: the return would be huge.
But art is not just about paintings though. Let’s talk about music.
Måneskin had a humongous growth in just five years. If you invested in them five years ago, you would have 20 times your investment inside your pocket. In just five years.
Let’s talk about cinema as well.. Di Caprio? If you had the chance to invest in him in 1995, you would have a ROI of 3000%.
Gaming? If you invested in Ninja 4 years ago you’d have a 400% ROI.
Looking at industries, the bigger picture is even better. Just check these numbers.
The music industry valuation went to $14 billions to $22 billions, cinema grew to $31 billions to $42 billions and Gaming exploded from $52 billions to $175 billions. Respectively a +57%, +36% and +236% of raw gain. In just 10 years. Pretty cool if you ask me.
Art is a concept that has been growing in value since the dawn of time. Every day that goes by, the world goes faster. Nowadays, artists of any kind might become extremely famous almost overnight.
Here at Helon, we asked ourselves: do we want to leave those gigantic ROIs hanging, for no one to take? Guess not.
