Our Art Acquisitions Process
Identify Potential Acquisitions
Karren Art Advisory conducts thorough research and evaluation of potential acquisitions.
With a focus on art education, Karren Art Advisory takes clients to galleries, museums, and artist studios.
Research and Evaluation
We conduct thorough research and evaluation of potential artworks to ensure their authenticity, quality, and value. This may include assessing the artist's reputation, provenance, market trends, and comparable sales.
Negotiation and Acquisition
Once suitable artworks are identified, we negotiate with the seller on behalf of the client to secure the best possible terms and prices for the acquisitions. This could involve price negotiation, arranging for inspections, and handling the purchase process.
Logistics and Installation
After the artworks are acquired, we manage the logistics of transporting them. We also assist with professional installation, ensuring that the artworks are beautifully displayed.
Documentation
We ensure that all necessary documentation, including certificates of authenticity, provenance records, and purchase agreements, are properly obtained and organized.
Ongoing Support
