Our Role as Advisors

We work closely with collectors to build coherent, meaningful and long-term art collections.

 

We take the time to understand:

  • Your objectives

  • Your artistic taste

  • Your budget

  • Your current collection (or your desire to start one)

 

Whether you are acquiring your first artwork or managing a major international collection, our role is the same:
to help you make informed, confident and inspiring choices.

3. Curated proposals & long-term follow-up

Based on your profile, we:

  • Curate tailored artwork proposals

  • Provide context, positioning and long-term vision
