Source Art offers full guidance and support throughout art procurement and collection management for residential, commercial, and public projects. Inspired by your vision, we employ our customized process to discern who our clients are as collectors and assist in building diverse collections of note, for both private and public spaces.
Utilizing our global network, we provide access to an extensive range of art, guiding our clients through the art acquisition process. We thoughtfully attend to every detail, addressing challenges as we support all project-specific needs.
ASSESSMENT
We offer a complimentary consultation to establish the parameters and overall scope of the project, taking into consideration various project needs, such as design vision, budget, and art preferences.
ESTABLISH
We then initiate the project, which requires a retainer, by creating a custom art plan documenting potential art placement areas, noting related design elements and information in our integrated art management tool. Collections are created and shared through our site as we begin culling art options for your project.
SELECT
Sourcing art specifically for each project, we explore a broad range of mediums and genres, we employ a variety of methods to assist in the acquisitions. Photo renderings show the art in context, helping to clarify the direction and refine selections. We bring art on memo and utilize other visualization tools to ensure the art is in alignment with the overall design.
By informing clients about the artists and artwork, referencing historical context and provenance, as well as providing updated Art Plan Documents, we keep the designer and client aware of information critical to making effective decisions.
IMPLEMENT
Every aspect of procurement is thoughtfully managed. We handle all communications and logistics, working with galleries and artists throughout the process. We provide shipping, delivery and art installation along with additional related services like framing, art lighting, and fabrication, incorporating costs from outside providers. Where it best serves the project, we initiate and navigate custom-commissioned artworks, promoting close collaboration amongst all parties.
MANAGE
We can integrate and manage pieces from your existing collection, as well as perform comprehensive market research to assess artwork value. Source Art completes the art advisory with a digital and physical record of each collection, ensuring art purchases are well-documented for collection, insurance, and investment purposes. Our art documentation includes detailed Certificates Of Authenticity and Art Data Sheets with artwork information, artist bios and artwork provenance.
Source Art remains available for ongoing support with all of your art acquisitions.
