Diversification

Investing in art allows for portfolio diversification through investment in an asset class that is weakly correlated with other financial products.

“The artworks selected by Matis were created by fundamental artists of the 20th century who have written the history of art and shaped our civilization.”

Chief Investment Officer

Easily access to the most prestigious contemporary art club deals

01

We select artworks from major 20th-century artists

Our team of experts analyzes art market trends to identify artworks made by iconic 'blue-chip' artists (with valuations ranging from $500,000 to $5 million). These artworks, recognized by museums and collectors, are purchased at the best possible prices to maximize their resale value.

02

We create exclusive club deals for you to invest in

For each selected artwork, a club deal is structured to allow investment through the subscription of convertible bonds into shares.

03

We entrust the artworks to leading global galleries for resale

Once acquired, the artwork is given to a network of galleries specializing in the specific artist, capable of presenting it to the proper collector at its market value. Investors regain their investment as well as any realized capital gains (not guaranteed) after the artwork is resold within a target horizon of roughly 24 months.

Matis is the product of a partnership between professionals  in art and finance

Let our investors speak for us

Accessing artworks usually inaccessible to most investors

The main strength of Matis is to allow small shareholders to access masterpieces of art history, usually inaccessible to most investors - a valuable point for a young investor like myself. Moreover, Matis’ strategy for selecting the artworks is based on a rigorous approach, carried by a team of experts in the art market, with several years of experience. Finally, I appreciate the educational approach of the company, which I could perceive both in my exchanges with the sales team and in reading the supports and informational documents presented for each club deal.

Corporate lawyer

Matis allows investing in a piece of art history.

Thanks to Matis, I was able to easily invest in a high-performing asset class, which is difficult to access directly without in-depth knowledge of the art market and a significant financial envelope. I was convinced by the expertise of Arnaud Dubois and the investment team in their ability to source quality works, coveted by museum institutions and art professionals. The emotional and cultural dimension is also very strong and allows investing in a piece of art history.

Romain Suaudeau

CEO in Fintech

Perceive art under a new facet, that of investment

As a collector on a personal level, I was captivated by Matis' value proposition, which allows one to perceive art under a new facet, that of investment. Matis’ selection strategy focused exclusively on world-renowned artists whose value has been established for years, convinced me to take the step and invest in a work by François-Xavier Lalanne.

Investing in recognized artists with a high market value

Matis was recommended to me by an investor friend. I was subsequently convinced by the company's investment strategy, which only proposes investing in recognized artists with a high market value. Through this club deal investment solution, I can diversify my portfolio into an asset class that is weakly correlated with other financial products. In addition, the investment scheme is easy to understand, and the subscription procedures are quick.

Sébastien Lalevée

General Manager of an Asset Management Company

Simple and fast investment experience.

Matis is an interesting co-investment solution for building a diversified portfolio by investing in several high-quality artworks, which I would not have been able to purchase alone. Moreover, the investment experience is simple and fast.
