In this episode of Purpose Driven Capital, host Matt Jones sits down with Michael Shepard, an experienced investor and advisor who’s redefining how we view fine art, not just as culture, but as capital. Together, they unpack what it really means to own a piece of Michelangelo, exploring how masterpieces have evolved from priceless treasures into modern investment vehicles.

Michael shares insights into the growing world of fine art investing, from understanding valuation and liquidity to the role of fractional ownership platforms that allow everyday investors to participate in historically exclusive markets. They discuss how the art market compares to precious metals, private equity, and other alternative assets, and what investors need to know before adding art to their portfolio.

But this episode goes deeper than markets, it’s about meaning. Matt and Michael explore the intersection between wealth and culture, and how investing in artwork can also be a way of preserving human creativity and legacy. For those who believe in wealth that aligns with purpose, this episode offers a new lens for understanding both financial and cultural stewardship.

If you’ve ever wondered how collectors, funds, or new digital platforms are turning art into an asset class, and how you can participate ethically, this conversation is your guide to the emerging frontier of fine art finance.
