CEO James Ryan Talks to Kay Burley on Sky News about Stony
In August 2022, James Ryan was invited on to Sky News to speak with Kay Burley following the tragic death of Stony to brain cancer.
Stony was a an extremely talented artist and a larger-than-life character. He produced extremely unique artwork which showed ties to urban and street art, with twists of abstraction and features of his own, personal quotes and mantras. He was heavily inspired by his life and family and particularly, in recent years, his battle with cancer.
Grove Gallery currently represents the Stony estate.

TAKE A LOOK AROUND OUR GALLERY
Grove Gallery
Grove Gallery is an established London-based art gallery offering inexperienced as well as established collectors an avenue for exploration and discovery. Using a cutting-edge blend of digitally innovative and physical exhibitions, our gallery’s Fitzrovia space offers a perpetually changing, year-round programme of dynamic talks and events, running in tandem with an artist-led exhibition schedule, celebrating contemporary art from around the world.
FAQs
The investment-grade artwork we deal with here at Grove Gallery ranges from approximately £5,000 to £10,000. There is however no limit to the amount you could invest.
Ideally, you should aim to hold on to the artwork for between 2 to 3 years although, to maximise your returns, you should aim for between 3 to 5 years.
Our pricing model includes insurance and storage of the artwork so the price you pay is fixed and final. There is a single commission at the end of the investment which is 20% of the profit of the final sale price of the artwork.
The artwork is stored in a London-based facility through our storage partner who specialise in the transportation and storage of museum-grade artwork. The exact location cannot be published for security reasons.
Grove Gallery will assist you in selling the artwork by either placing the work with a private collector from our extensive network, hanging the work for sale in our gallery, marketing the work online through art platforms such as Artsy and Artnet, or placing the work with an auction house.
If you experience a change of circumstances and need to sell the artwork quickly, please get in touch with us and we will endeavor to find a buyer as quickly as we can.
Yes. Capital Gains Tax is payable on the profit generated from the sale of a work of art worth £6,000 or more. However, for the tax year 2021-2022 your personal capital gains tax allowance is £12,300 so, unless you have used all of this allowance, the gains will be free of tax. Please do not take this information as tax advice and refer to a tax advisor for information regarding your own personal tax situation.
Art is not a liquid asset and like any asset, the value of art can rise as well as fall. Depending on the artist’s performance and their future collectability, there may be a risk that the projected returns are not achieved.
Art investments have averaged a return of 8.43% since 2000 and have outperformed the FTSE by over 400% between 2000 and 2020 and there is nothing to suggest that these returns aren’t set to continue. Therefore, conservatively, we predict the equivalent of a return of approximately 8.5% per annum.
Apart from galleries closing their doors during the pandemic and more sales taking place online, the art market has performed very well during the pandemic and the latest studies suggest that art prices have increased by an average of 16% since the start of Covid. In fact, the art market is one of the only investment vehicles that has managed to resist the downturn that has affected the financial world.
The overriding reason is that the art market does not correlate with the equity markets. The factors that affect equities do not influence the art world. The property market has been directly affected by social isolation and high street banks are doing their utmost to simply stay afloat. However, as long as art physically exists and can be bought and sold then it remains unaffected by socio-economic fluctuations.
Quite simply because you will own a tangible, physical asset. By investing in stocks, bonds, or ISAs you are investing in an idea or an assumption that the economy and the markets will work in your favour and gain you capital return. With art you own the asset outright and, should you wish, you can view it in person or even hang it in your own home.

Whilst nobody would blame you for being overly cautious in the current environment, it should be noted that the value of your savings is currently dropping by the day. The current UK inflation rate is higher than any savings account that can be found from UK banks which means that holding on to your money is actually decreasing your overall net-worth and your purchasing power. This means that now is, in fact, the perfect time to make your finances work for you by investing in art.
By owning a tangible asset such as a piece of art, you have security in something physical that is not affected by news reports or market movements. Grove Square Galleries will provide certificates of ownership and a valuation so you will have all of the documents you need for insurance and security and, more importantly, peace of mind. We also offer you the option of professional storage so you can be sure that nothing untoward will ever happen to your investment.
