Acquiring artwork is a financial transaction wrapped inside an aesthetic wonder. One of the most overlooked aspects of art is its value as a portable investment and wealth liquidity device. For our clients who are already collectors, we offer a turn-key system where their art is moved from their home country to a country of their choice, where it is then sold or borrowed against. For our clients who do not already own art, we advise on building collections which can be retained or moved, liquidated or borrowed against.

​

Moving and selling artwork safely and seamlessly requires expertise in customs rules, insurance, and transportation, among other fields. Our in-house attorneys and advisors ensure that your prized collection is meticulously looked after at every step of its journey.

​

Our clients demand that those involved in dealing with their collections have the highest academic and industry credentials, and we are proud to live up to those standards. We also have the business smarts to get the best deals and the acumen to assess and react to the constantly changing art market.

​

Our team has extensive industry experience stemming from their careers in major museums, art galleries, auction houses and law firms. We have a combined 110 years of experience in these areas. In addition, we monitor the latest trends in art fairs, exhibitions and auctions worldwide to provide the insights you need to navigate the global art market.
