There are now companies like Masterworks that let you crowd-fund the purchase of million-dollar artworks. Problem is that the fees are 1.5% a year and 20% of profits and your gain will be realized when they decide to sell at some point in the future.

It would be good to a Vanguard-like trust owned by investors where the trust invests in well-known types of art - a trust for Impressionists, and a trust for Baroque, for example. I'd perhaps invest in an art ETF that's traded on the public market and owned hundreds of works. It's just not clear what should be bought and when they should be sold.

Maybe this will be an incentive for shareholder voting to come back into vogue.
