Sentry Arts possesses extensive industry experience in conducting Art Evaluations; we utilize collected data to help our clients make the best decisions for the future of that organization’s artwork holdings.
Whether you are looking to downsize, or build your art collection, understanding the condition of your artwork is vital to making the best decisions for the future of your collection.
The Art Evaluation process begins with a review of any existing inventory, as well as a site walk, which enables our Collection Evaluation team to gain a better understanding of the project’s scope. After this initial step, we will make recommendations and create a project plan based on our evaluation. Sentry will then visually assess each work of art in your collection and identify issues within the collection, ranging from those requiring immediate repair to smaller, cosmetic needs, like the improvement of reframing a particular piece. The data we collect will be loaded into our inventory database, from which you can pull condition reports as your needs dictate.
During the Collection Evaluation process, Sentry can also re-organize your existing storage systems, and build custom storage solutions to help extend the life of your holdings.
