Art Collections

We've worked with individuals, groups, government bodies and companies to advise on all areas related to art collections.

 

Whether indigenous art, works on paper (limited edition prints or photographs), paintings, craft and design objects, sculpture or public art, the purchase of art indicates a great deal about who you are and how you present yourself - particularly in business, where a collection can reflect the ethos and character of your business practice. The display of art enhances the work environment for you, your staff, visitors and your clients.

 

We can assess your collection and advise on consolidation through the acquisition of new works or de-accessioning of existing works. We can develop strategies to enhance the way art is used in your work environment by making it more accessible through the production of information booklets, such as brochures or catalogues or through interpretative wall labels or content for apps.

We help you to work in partnership with artists to produce site-specific installations or even to work directly in the business environment amongst your clients and staff.  We can help find the right artist for your needs.

 

We also work with local government, private clients and corporations to commission artists to produce public art for indoor and outdoor spaces.

An Acquisitions Policy can be an extremely useful document, clarifying the reasons you wish to collect and your long-term goals and can help to articulate the kind of art you wish to purchase. We can develop this with you and help to implement it.

We love to work with architects and interior designers to assist in the purchase of works for their clients or to commission specific works for particular spaces.

We can:

  • develop acquisition policy documents 

  • assess art collections 

  • advise on purchase of new work 

  • advise on de-accessioning collections 

  • purchase work on behalf of clients 

  • develop artist-in-residence programs 

  • project manage commissions 

  • project manage public art projects 

  • produce various materials for information and educational purposes
