Services

We work with collectors at every stage of a collection, from the first orientation in an unfamiliar field to the day-to-day care of what has been built. Every engagement is private, agreed in writing before it begins, and paid for by one party only.

Art orientation

A private, structured introduction for collectors exploring a specific segment of the market. Through institutions, art fairs and selected galleries, the sessions clarify taste, priorities and acquisition criteria. Each orientation includes a curated route and on-site guidance by a Cultured advisor.

Institutions and fairs

Museums, institutions, art fairs and biennials, chosen for what they teach rather than for what is on sale.

Galleries and studios

Selected galleries and artist studios, with introductions to the people who run them.

Route and guidance

A written route for the season, and on-site guidance by a Cultured advisor throughout.
