Art Advisory Services

The following list of services can be tailored to the needs of each individual client

Alignment: To understand client’s art preference and collection strategy/vision we will provide art education:

• This will involve a preliminary brief presentation with an overview of different art collection types, contemporary artists, the art market as it currently stands, current trends, and forecasts in trends.

Strategy: Once an early strategy is in place, we will hone in on the type of art to target by organizing periodic visits to galleries, museums, auction houses, and artists’ studios.

Budget: Establish a budget with a timeline and goals for the type of work to acquire.

Negotiate: Negotiate the purchase of all art on behalf of client with the goal of achieving the best value for the purchase.

Evaluate: Verify the reputation of the art gallery or dealer before committing to a purchase, and guide client with information on how to determine the authenticity of an artwork.

• i.e. Appraising, provenance/condition check, determining the fair price when a work of secondary art is offered by a private dealer.

Curatorial services: Provide curating guidance for the placement of the artwork within residence.

Ongoing Guidance: Provide guidance in terms of art insurance, framing, art handling, and documentation.

• Guidance for future loans to art institutions, as well as requests for inclusion in artist monographs, may also be provided if that need arises.

Art Fairs and Memberships: Provide guidance on selecting which art fairs and events to attend, as well as which memberships have the most value.

• Organize tours at art fairs and biennials with access to selective, private events.
