LOVEART
LoveArt is an international Art Advisory based in Sydney and New York specialising in the commissioning, acquisition, display, cataloguing, valuation and collection management of the best contemporary art from all over the world for corporate, public and private spaces.
We have over 20 years of experience in providing bespoke, confidential and independent art advice for corporations and private collectors in Australia and overseas. Projects include commissioning customised moving image installations for QT Hotels throughout Australia and large public artworks for Audi Australia and Global Switch, Sydney and Paris; acquiring and commissioning key international and Australian works for public spaces in W Hotel Hong Kong and Brisbane, and Mullane’s Hotel, Sydney; and curating and commissioning emerging collections for Ferrier Hodgson, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth, and Minter Ellison, Sydney. In 2010 and 2018, LoveArt hosted exhibitions of new work by international artist Tracey Emin, including public programs of museum tours, poetry performances and public museum talks.
We believe, irrespective of its size or value, an art collection should provide endless personal pleasure, enhance your home or business environment, and become a valuable asset. In our consulting process, we only present you with works of art that have the objective qualities to meet our high standard of criteria, so that all you have to do is decide what you like. As a retainer client of LoveArt, you will never endure pressure to purchase works, particularly in your first year as a client when it is more valuable to simply gain education and insight, determining what art you would like to collect and the spaces in your life it should occupy.
LoveArt does not hold work here on consignment, we do not represent artists, and all works are objectively the very best quality currently available and come from galleries, auction houses and private collections all over the world. We are completely independent and possess no obligation to third parties regarding the sale or resale of art.
