The artistic heritage has, by definition, a long duration and its value often grows over time. The need to preserve it, to free it from the vicissitudes that may affect the owners, to pass it on, whole, through the generations and make it available to the public, even after the death of the owner or the artist, are all necessities with a trust can satisfy. Applicable to any type of artwork, antique or vintage objects (such as motor cars), it has many advantages, compared to a more conventional arrangement such as a foundation, because it allows the forecasting of the distribution of any income produced by the management of the assets involved.
Through trusts it is also possible to plan and manage public and private art projects.
