“Street Art as an investment vehicle”<\/p>\n
I am not a street artist and I don’t particularly appreciate the street art genre. However, it’s hard to deny the success of this art form in building wealth. A quick search on Google Trends indicates that the term and interest in street art has grown out of proportion to the growth of other artistic movements or genres, and has only been increasing over time. In fact, street art appears to have been on a hyperbolic growth curve for at least the past 5 years.<\/p>\n
Trying to describe this phenomena, one can’t help but observe that many people are trying to cash in on what is becoming a popular trend. It’s hard not to separate this from the recent rise of graffiti as a commercial endeavor and speculate about the effect that such a rise may have had on the value of the art form itself.<\/p>\n
The fact is that most artists who make their livings from their work are not so-called “street artists”. Their exhibitions take place in galleries and museums, their pieces are sold as reproductions, etc. The few true street artists who do make commercial profits from their work are generally those who are able to produce unique pieces that are either very large or very expensive (e.g., Banksy).

The street art scene is maturing, and big money is starting to filter into the market. Many of the world’s top art galleries have set up dedicated street art sections, and auction houses like Phillips de Pury are trialing specialist auctions for graffiti and stencil works.<\/p>\n
Who should be paying attention? Property developers, interior designers and private investors. Street art is an established asset class that has started to attract institutional investors. It is not just a fad: the market has been around for 30 years, has a recognised value in excess of $100 million, and annual growth rates of 20%. And many high profile street artists such as Banksy, Kenny Scharf and Shepard Fairey are becoming household names.*<\/p>\n

Street art is a form of art that is created in public spaces, often unsanctioned and illicit. The work can be executed in several mediums including graffiti, stencils, wheat-paste posters, sticker-placement, drawing, sculpture and other mixed media.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Created by artists who wish to remain anonymous or pseudonymous or whose identities are unconfirmed, the street location is a central part of the work itself. Street art can often be controversial due to its illicit nature and\/or use of overtly political imagery or messages. Stencil graffiti, for example, has been employed for decades as a form of protest by opposition groups. In the 2010s, with the rise of social media and camera phones, images of street art have become more widely circulated on the Internet.<\/p>\n
Street art is often associated with the artistic movements popularly known as graffiti and “urban art” (e.g., hip hop graffiti and murals). It may also include permanent installations (e.g., sculptures). Street art is an important form of expression as well as urban development when it works with local government to create safe spaces for legal murals to be painted on buildings that are then protected from developers and businesses that would otherwise remove them.<\/p>\n
