Art Consulting
Winnipeg’s Premiere Independent Professional Art Consultants
We are a client-driven art consulting practice that understands the needs and interests of collectors.
With expertise in the contemporary and historical Canadian art markets, we source works by both emerging and established artists, from contemporary and historical art galleries and auction houses locally, nationally and internationally. If the perfect piece of art does not yet exist, we will find the right artist and have custom, commissioned artwork created to the specifications required. Our network also includes respected art restoration, conservation, framing and installation specialists. We provide fine art appraisals for insurance, estates, tax-deductible charitable donations, legal purposes and other value determination needs. Our appraisals are compliant with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) and the standards of the International Society of Appraisers.
We work closely and collaboratively with our collectors’ architects and interior designers to intimately understand interior spaces, sourcing artwork that elevates and completes the environment.
Our white glove service offers the option for works of art to be placed in your home or business to view in advance of purchasing. For corporate clients, we take into consideration brand identity and vision.
