Our Art Consultancy Process
Market Research
The art market offers exceptional opportunities, as long as it is navigated with diligence and comprehensive knowledge. With over 20 years’ experience within the contemporary art industry, as art consultants Artelier has an exacting eye for quality and a rigorous approach to procuring authentic art.
Investment Advice
With a commitment to providing clients with concise and trusted art advice, Artelier’s principle role as an art consultant is to positively question the purchasing contexts within which contemporary art is presented. Through this ongoing process, we have identified some of the most talented artists making work today.
Unrivalled Database
Through the culmination of extensive artistic research, Artelier has established a comprehensive database of over 10,000 artists, which represent a global community of artists and a spectrum of artforms – all of which meet our demanding criteria for Quality, Originality, Provenance and Value.
Tailored Portfolios
Engaging with the project's unique design and context is central to our role as art consultants. Responding to each individual context is a collaborative and creative process, which draws on our art market insight and comprehensive artist database to develop expertly curated and highly personalised art collections.
Curating Spaces
The relationship of an artwork to its space requires careful consideration to ensure the work is balanced with its surroundings. Artelier’s in-depth art curation initiates with detailed review of floor plans and site visits to understand the space, and identify key artwork locations and dimensions.
