What is an art consultant, and why do you need one?

An art consultant will help you define and execute your corporate art program. Artwork in the workplace plays a key role in telling your company story, tying together your interiors package, and differentiating your space through the eyes of your employees and clients.

Questions our clients often ask are: What kind of art should we get?  What kind of art can we afford?  How can I know the quality?  What will the framing look like?  How do we get it all in our office?  Who will hang it?   –  We will guide you through the process and you will feel secure that we stand behind your project.

Step One: To determine the purpose and function of artwork in your environment we will survey your space, help decide the scope of the project, and assist you in developing a budget for artwork.

Step Two: Once the scope of the project and budget have been determined and agreed to, we will do the legwork for you.  We will search for the artwork, coordinate the framing and display package, then present the project for your approval.

Step Three: Upon your approval – we will begin your project, overseeing all of the procurement, framing and installation for your interior.  Additionally, we are a great resource for consultation on other aspects of the space as they relate to your artwork, such as lighting and furniture placement.

As art consultants we have extensive knowledge of the art market, and will give you insight into the latest trends in corporate artwork.  We can work with your interior design staff to curate an artwork selection that will complement your specific vision.  We also cultivate and maintain  relationships with the best resources available – local artists, national art vendors, custom framing, printing, shipping, security, installation, appraisals, even public relations, should you seek editorial coverage of a special exhibit.

Working with an art consultant you will not only be receiving a professional service, but you will free yourself from tending to all the details and unknowns a corporate art program incurs.  It is a wise investment of which many companies just like yours have taken advantage.
