Art is still a good invetsment
The art world isn’t like the rest of the world, especially today. the art market is just zooming along. Damien Hirst’s turn comes tonight. Hirst admits his art is odd. This arts market editor in London can’t quite believe how lucrative the art market still is, and how strong the market has stayed. The editor says most of the buyers are non-traditional and wealthy, new entrepreneurs have the money to buy what they like.
