PHILIP HOFFMAN & THE FINE ART GROUP
Since founding The Fine Art Group in 2001 and pioneering the first-ever asset-backed art investment fund, Philip has transformed how the world views art—not just as a cultural treasure, but as a powerful financial asset. Reflecting on his journey, Philip shared with Observer: “Many collectors, including my initial backers, thought art was merely a cultural asset, not a financial one.”
Two decades later, Philip has proven that art can rival blue-chip stocks in both profitability and complexity, solidifying his place as a leader in art investment and advisory.
