Our Services
-
Cataloguing
Cataloguing is an important foundational step when it comes to managing and caring for an art collection. Whether it is for insurance, estate planning, or collection management purposes, we prepare detailed inventories that provide collectors with pertinent information about the value, condition, and provenance of their art and collectibles.
-
Collections Management
We help clients manage and care for their art collections. This involves advising on and facilitating cleaning, conservation, framing, shipping, storage, installation, and museum loans, as well as managing our clients’ artwork records in one of the leading cloud-based collection management systems.
-
Art Advising
As an independent firm with access to an international network of artists, galleries, dealers, auction houses, and private sources, we are able to provide objective market advice to help our clients acquire, sell, or donate art. We provide expert guidance to help collectors navigate the primary and secondary art markets in Canada and internationally.
-
Corporate Curating
We help clients build and manage corporate art collections. Whether a corporation is renovating its office, building a new tower, or simply looking to rehang or evolve its current collection, we handle all aspects of this work from start to finish — from defining a budget and collecting strategy to selecting and placing art to coordinating delivery, installation, and signage.
-
Appraisals
We provide appraisals for insurance, estate planning, and donation, including CCPERB appraisals for cultural property donations. With a focus on fine art, our appraisals conform to the current Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), which is governed by The Appraisal Foundation.

Special Projects
From digital activations to book publications, we work with our clients to bring their collections to life in accessible, educational, and engaging ways. We also lead special events for our corporate clients, including talks and collection tours.
