Masterworks currently has over 100,000 users signed-up on its platform and is growing at more than 11,000 per month. “Blue-chip” art (defined as the top 100 artists in terms of sales volume) has outperformed the S&P 500 by 180% since 2000.

Masterworks makes it possible for anyone to allocate capital to this exciting asset class.
