Seeing the forest for the trees

Buying art is easy. Collecting art is not. Owning art is sometimes complicated. Investing in art is difficult.

Our goal is to provide a personalized and gratifying art experience. We work with clients to develop collections that reflect their current and evolving interests and tastes. Collections are rarely static. We are not satisfied with status quo, cookie-cutter accumulations of popular, often short-lived, artist brands or auction trophies. We prefer a mix of things—ideas and objects—that stimulate our clients. enliven their homes and offices, and retain aesthetic value.

Encountering art

There is no substitute for personal encounters. Gallery, art fair, and museum visits are vital excursions. We provide our clients with broad and meaningful art experiences to address ask sometimes perplexing or provocative questions:

• "Why is this art?"

• "What does it mean?"

• “How was it made?”

• "What motivated the artist?"

• “What is the value of the work in both cultural and economic terms?”

• “How do I react to it, emotionally and intellectually?”

Working with us

Our services and business practices are transparent. We begin an advisory relationship with candid discussions about client objectives, aspirations, preferences, and budgets. We balance client interests and objectives with our abilities to meet them. As such, we evaluate our clients, just as they evaluate us. To be effective, there must be trust, understanding, and chemistry in a client-advisor relationship.
