So question, I understand the whole using art as a money laundering/asset/what have you with the freeports etc. But as an artist, could I just team up with a crew of friendly millionaires and just have them buy my art at exorbitant prices to drive up it's perceived market value, and just slip the initial investors a majority of their payment back?
