INTRODUCTION

TO THE ART WORLD

Identifying a client’s thematic interests and artistic vision is the first step in building a unique and meaningful collection. We view art collecting as an emotional and intellectual investment, as well as a financial one.

ENHANCED EXPERIENCE

We collaborate with our clients to develop informed, customized, and innovative collections. Pursuits believes in an enhanced experience – our advisory manages all areas of the collecting process to make it seamless. Working closely with artists and institutions opens the door for private studio visits and exhibition tours with high-level museum directors. Personalized tours of art fairs, biennials, and auction houses are exciting educational experiences that we encourage our clients to participate in.

RESEARCH

The advisory supports learning and engagement through all aspects of the collection process. We methodically analyze auction databases, monitor market trends, and consult a wide range of private sector sales. By sharing our extensive library of catalogues, books, and archives, our clients are able to develop a deeper appreciation of the artist, their career, and important historical influences within their practice.
