Description
Valuation Summary 📝
To ensure the competitiveness of the investment, we conducted a thorough verification of the purchase price by analyzing recent gallery transactions. Our analysis confirmed that the price offered, inclusive of all associated fees, is highly competitive. To estimate the potential ROI, we used the annualized return of his paintings over the past five years. For our conservative scenario, we assumed the value of the painting would grow at the rate of Swiss inflation, reflecting a defensive approach. In the balanced scenario, we assume a 35% probability of realizing a 35.4% (CAGR of the past 2 years) annual return for the next 4 years. Finally, in the ambitious scenario, we assume a 70% probability of realizing a 35.1% (CAGR of the past 2 years) annual return for the next 4 years. These potential returns over the next four years, under both the balanced and ambitious scenarios, are further enhanced by the 27% discount at which this beautiful work is offered compared to the current gallery price for similar-sized works.
Exit Options at Maturity 🚪
We will manage the exit strategy in collaboration with our expert Opera Gallery on behalf of our investors, ensuring the best possible outcome based on market conditions at the time. Depending on the prevailing market situation, the paintings will be sold to a private collector or offered as single lots at an auction for contemporary art. An auction is considered if the price has developed to the point where the minimum bid matches the market value and there is high demand for works by the artist. Both options are carefully considered, and we will choose the one that maximizes the return for our investors.
Why Invest in This Category? 🎨
For centuries, art was collected for its cultural, emotional, intellectual, political, and economic value. Investing in a mid-career artist offers a mix of financial potential and personal satisfaction, making it an appealing option for both new and seasoned collectors.
Why Invest in This Asset? 💎
Thomas Dillon’s artworks present an exciting opportunity to invest in a rising contemporary artist whose raw, figurative expressionist style has garnered attention for its innovative approach. Dillon’s unique artistic process, rooted in intuition and primal creativity, has earned comparisons to the legendary Jean-Michel Basquiat. As a self-taught artist represented by SHRINE Gallery in New York, Dillon is already making waves on the international art stage, including his solo booth at The Armory Show—a platform reserved for established and future-defining artists. SHRINE’s success in propelling artists like Hayley Barker, whose works sold for $177,800 at Sotheby’s in 2023, highlights Dillon’s promising trajectory.
The historical growth of Dillon’s paintings is equally compelling: between 2022 and 2024, similar-sized works increased from GBP 12,000 to GBP 20,000, achieving a two-year return of 67% or an annualized 34%. Projected returns remain strong, with expected annual growth rates of 16%–34% over the next 2–4 years. Dillon’s striking vision, prestigious gallery representation, and rapidly rising demand position his artworks as both culturally significant and financially rewarding assets, appealing to collectors seeking substantial upside potential within the contemporary art market.
