Investment opportunity:

PalmBeachArt.com is looking for wise investors - individuals and corporations wishing to expand their horizons and become part of the booming art market world wide.

The opportunities are unlimited, from partnerships in retail galleries to publishing and distribution. Opportunities exist in the production of art, international distribution rights, partnerships on the web, and much more.

PalmBeachArt.com offers no shares in our company. In our experience, the most successful and profitable ventures are one-time projects which involve the production, the distribution and the sale of artwork.

An individual project might consist of one artist or a group of artists. It can include existing artwork and/or works to be produced in the near future. An investor can become a partner with PalmBeachArt.com or directly with an artist or publishing company to reproduce a series of artworks as limited edition prints.

The greatest long-term investment opportunity is in purchasing original artworks and becoming a partner in the reproduction rights for these works. Prints are generally produced in editions of 500 to 1000. Distribution is handled by established distribution channels. Return on investment is expected within 18 to 24 months. Publicizing the artwork increases its popularity and value. It is therefore in the best interest of the investor to promote the art work. Generally, the investor keeps the original work and retains a 50% interest in the copyright. This creates an excellent opportunity for product development and private label industries. To protect the artist's rights, only copyrights for individual works are sold. The artist does not sell the copyrights for a particular period or for an entire lifetime's work.

An individual investor or corporation, willing to open a retail gallery, is welcome to discuss partnership opportunities with PalmBeachArt.com, either directly with one of the artists, or with any other party who has the same interests. 

In our experience, successful investments include organizing one month shows at temporary retail galleries. The most profitable shows are in the New York City Metropolitan area. Collaboration with several corporate art consultants and art curators is crucial for the success of a show, as their established relations with collectors increase attendance and invariably bring in more sales. In these cases, the investor's position is simply funding and promoting the show, and drawing high returns from the sales of the artwork.

For the investor who is interested in investing in "temporary galleries", international traveling exhibitions can be highly profitable. The investor's role here is to fund transportation, insurance, advertising and promotion. For example, an exhibit shown in New York City at an established gallery can travel to London, to Paris, and then on to Tokyo. Any works sold during the show remain on exhibit at all locations for the duration of the show. Only when the last show has ended are the sold artworks shipped to the collectors who have purchased them. This allows all of the artwork to be seen worldwide, enjoy full media coverage, and have the greatest impact on the art world and on human culture. The investor's profits come directly from the sales of the artwork.

We have also had success with full book publishing investments. This gives the investor the opportunity to become a partner with a book publishing and distribution company.

The artist generally collects royalties amounting to 5% - 7% of the gross wholesale sales. To insure the success of the edition, it is absolutely necessary to consult with comparable book publishing companies or art book editors. Since few art books are reprinted, they generally become highly profitable lifetime investments.

In addition, the gift industry provides unlimited merchandising opportunities. One successful image can become a multimillion dollar "milk cow" if reproduced on postcards, t-shirts, ties, jewelry, shopping bags, fabrics, etc.

Investors are always welcome to get involved in individual shows at prestigious galleries in the USA. By funding advertising and promotion of an art show we can assure a greater success of the show, and make more sales.

Individuals and corporations are welcome to contact PalmBeachArt.com with their own creative ideas. Joint ventures and collaborative efforts assure greater success for all parties involved.
