Art Advisers

About the Art Advisers category

High-net-worth individuals have long been drawn to the glamorous, lucrative and often cutthroat world of the international art market. On the most basic level, an art adviser provides expert advice to a private individual or institution on how to build and manage their collection, whatever their goal may be. Art advisers also open doors: they can facilitate access to shows, sales, fairs and auctions, while arranging support on more practical matters such as transportation, valuation and insurance. Art advisers can be generalists or leaders in a given time period or movement – the figures represented in our index, for example, are experts in fields ranging from Ancient Egypt to British contemporary art.
