When life changes course, it can leave an art collection without clear stewardship. Whether you have inherited a collection, are navigating works from a divorce or looking to downsize, support and guidance in assessing, understanding and managing works of art can prove transformative. 

Our Collection Management service provides research, strategic advice and support. Tailored to each collector’s needs, we execute the groundwork on understanding and situating a collection in the art market and art history, devising the best strategy for retaining or selling a work. With us as your researchers, advisors and advocates, you can take the time needed to make informed, strategic decisions to achieve your desired outcome.
