The history of art plus recent trends in the sales of contemporary art, print sales and reproductive print sales, strongly show that art can be an excellent investment -- depending on what artist one collects.
Throughout art history, collecting the work of any artist who began a new theory of art (such as Impressionism, Cubism, Conceptual or Pop Art) or collecting an artist who is counted as a founder of a theory/movement has proven to be an excellent investment. You can check this data out for yourself easily.
Of course, buying art in the early stages of a founder's career usually reaps the best percentage of profits on investment. Think of the financial benefits accrued by those early collectors of founders of other art theories, such as those of Andy Warhol, Camille Pissarro, Pablo Picasso, etc.
