An interest in art as an investment is something Verena Ruedi sees with many ANZ Private clients.

 

“We’re very much focussed on helping our clients manage and grow their wealth in ways that support their ambitions. That might be personal, intergenerational, or other areas – like art – that are important to them.

 

“Many, like Joan, are investing not only to grow their own portfolios, but also as a way to foster and support a thriving New Zealand art community.”

 

ANZ Private is the principal partner of the Fair and has been a major supporter of the event since its inception. This year over 180 artists from across Aotearoa and the Pacific Rim will showcase their work.

 

“The breadth of talent and work we see each year is testament to the outstanding talent and creativity of New Zealand’s artists, the Fair is an opportunity for ANZ Private to support these amazing artists and help them connect with a wider audience.”

 

This is something that resonates with Joan.

 

“Connection is important – look what has come from that connection I made with Richard Thompson all those years ago.”

 

She urges others not to be afraid to start investing in art.

 

“A good place to start is to find galleries that you like, join the community, find out what events are on and get involved. You’ll start seeing work you like, talk to people, find emerging artists, you’ll find you are able to pick up a piece of art you like which is quite reasonably priced.”
