Generated from EDGAR primary sources

PLINTH ART FUND LP is a Delaware limited partnership that filed Form D on December 2, 2019, disclosing $101.0 million raised from 3 investors under Rule 506(b) and 3(c) exemptions. The fund, managed by executive officers Johnny Wu, James Nicholas, and George Bashforth, invests in fine art with a stated minimum investment of $1. No first sale date was disclosed in this original filing.

This fine art fund utilizes the standard 506(b) private placement exemption common to alternative investment vehicles, combined with 3(c) exemption under the Investment Company Act. The $1 minimum investment disclosure is nominal; fine art funds typically target institutional or high-net-worth investors with undisclosed practical minimums governed by subscription agreements rather than the public filing.

Data Flags

minimum investment$1 minimum investment stated for a $101M fine art fund with only 3 investors, suggesting the disclosed minimum is a placeholder rather than the actual subscription threshold (average check size is $33.7M)
investor countOnly 3 investors for $101M raised, indicating an average investment of approximately $33.7 million per investor — an unusually concentrated investor base suggesting large institutional or UHNW backers
generalOriginal filing (not an amendment) with no first sale date disclosed but significant capital already raised, which may indicate a late filing after initial close

Questions About PLINTH ART FUND LP

Each answer is built from the values on the SEC filing and the AltStreet ledger, not from the issuer's marketing.

What is PLINTH ART FUND LP?

PLINTH ART FUND LP is a Delaware limited partnership that filed a Form D with the SEC on December 2, 2019 as a hedge fund. The filing claims Rule 506(b), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(7) for an offering of pooled investment fund interests. AltStreet links the issuer to PLINTH ART FUND LP.

Is PLINTH ART FUND LP legit?

AltStreet does not rate legitimacy; it reports the public record. PLINTH ART FUND LP filed a Form D with the SEC on December 2, 2019 claiming Rule 506(b), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(7). A Form D is a notice of an exempt offering, not a review or approval of it. The newest notice reports $101,035,332 sold to 3 investors. AltStreet's enforcement record (SEC, FINRA and state actions) shows no action naming the issuer as of today. The issuer is linked to PLINTH ART FUND LP, which AltStreet has reviewed. Before investing, confirm the filing on EDGAR, check the seller's registration on FINRA BrokerCheck, and read the offering documents, which a Form D does not include.

Is PLINTH ART FUND LP registered with or approved by the SEC?

No. A Form D is a notice that an issuer is selling securities under an exemption from registration, and the SEC does not review, approve, or pass on the merits of the offering. The filing shows that PLINTH ART FUND LP claimed Rule 506(b), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(7) and disclosed the items the form requires, such as the amount sold, the minimum investment, related persons, and anyone paid to sell the securities. It does not verify the issuer's claims or its business.
