The Black Box of the Art Business

In Switzerland, covering an area of 120,000 square meters, Geneva freeport shelters tens of billions of Euros of merchandise. A tax free area where the world’s wealthiest, speculators, collectors and art dealers store exceptional wines, diamonds, and especially works of art, in the greatest secrecy. A secrecy that can allow questionable financial operations.
At a time when the secrecy of Swiss banking is under international pressure, art is the new shelter of hidden international finance. Geneva freeport is today a place linked to the concealment of stolen art pieces, money laundering, and tax evasion. Under the freeport’s rules, objects could remain in untaxed limbo, in theory, forever. Treasures have come and they have not left. What does Geneva freeport really contain? Let’s investigate the most secret vault in the world. -

@@eamonnbeahan5611 I worked at GVA Airport for a while some years back. We had a Fine Arts freight packaging and transport service and needless to say that the prices for handling and moving wooden cases were ludicrous. This place is so expensive that my director at the time decided to keep a prestigious painting ON his desk in the Airport rather than store it a few days before sending it off somewhere. He told me the day it left. He got fired a few months later because the top circles of the company got wind of it ! The company this guy created, bought the company I worked for specialising in high value freight (and security).

The so called stolen painting titled "Portrait of a Man" could be another painting. The painting in question, that was displayed, had the name of the painting on the label on the back of the painting/frame, and it was not Portrait of a Man, it was however "Portrait of M. X". Modigliani did many other portraits of men, so the detectives claim is far from proof that this is the painting he is trying to recover.

At some point the art world has got to either collapse or top off. These ridiculous prices are so out of hand. No you don’t want great works discounted to such low levels, the pieces would be lost, destroyed, etc forever. But there has to be an even ground somewhere. IMHO, governments need to only collect tax one time on a piece of art....or anything for that fact. It’s ludicrous for any country to keep profiting off of gift tax or sales tax on the same item. This is the main reason, Freeport’s exist. From there out and out theft is the second reason. I would not want to own art I could not enjoy or look at.

We are manufacturers of moral and cultural packets, which are stored and displayed on viewers walls. They are built with precise materials and in the correct order to last many centuries without needing restoration. Living on a wall also helps, as it is out of the way of the drunk. Their value, is their proximity to living people and their affect on those people's souls. Stored in a dark swiss storage complex is the same as in the bottom of a shaft in Pompeii.
