Is Andy Warhol art a good investment?
1 Answer

Many art lovers believe that Andy Warhol art is a good investment. While trends in collecting come and go, demand for the Pop artist's works has remained high for decades, so prices for his pieces tend to continuously increase in value.
A European collector owned Warhol’s Silver Car Crash (Double Disaster), for example, for around 20 years before selling it at auction in November 2013 at Sotheby’s, where it was bought by an anonymous bidder for $105.4 million.
It’s worth noting that collecting should reflect your personal tastes, and whether or not a given Warhol work is a good investment will depend upon a range of factors such as condition, rarity and more. Buyers should keep in mind that the value of any investment is subject to fluctuation, and any investment decisions should be made according to the guidance of a financial advisor.
