# How LiveArt Makes It Work LiveArt tokenizes and fractionalizes iconic artworks, cars and luxury collectibles. These are backed 1:1 by physical assets stored in insured, institution-grade vaults. Tokens are tradable across 17+ chains. Everything is authenticated. Everything is real. We’ve fractionalized blue-chip works and made them available to a global audience. We’ve put cultural capital onchain—where it’s liquid, transparent, and programmable. The art and luxury collectibles market represents trillions in locked value—from $1T+ in museum-grade art to billions in rare cars, watches, and wines. But most of the world has been priced out. Tokenization flips the script—turning these high-value cultural assets into accessible, tradable opportunities for people everywhere. It gives power to the many, not just the few. Imagine co-owning a Yayoi Kusama artwork in just a few clicks. Or earning yield from a Picasso you helped co-fund—without ever leaving your home. Or voting on whether to loan a Jeff Koons’ *Balloon Dog* to a museum, all from your phone. No borders. No barriers. Just instant, global access to the world’s most iconic cultural assets. This is a new way to experience and invest in culture. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
