Before setting out on an acquisition strategy with clients who are embarking on building a collection, we help them to discover their own tastes and passions, and to plan their collecting accordingly.
We advise upon the pricing, authenticity, condition and past history of a work of art, and compile formal dossiers on individual pieces under consideration. We advise in detail on current critical and commercial trends, and introduce our clients to artists and movements which may interest them.
As a collector grows more experienced, our primary task is to be our client's eyes and ears, and to act for them in the marketplace.
We monitor the worldwide market for works of potential interest and value, and where a particular work may not be readily available, we seek it out. We source work directly from private collections, through auction and commercial galleries, and act for our clients in every way necessary.
We believe above all that building an art-collection should be a passionate, exciting and creative experience.
On a curatorial level, we oversee the multitude of tasks that owning a major collection brings with it, from insurance and tax-structuring to framing, conservation, installation and lighting.
We act professionally, exclusively and unambiguously on behalf of our principal.
