Celebrating a Milestone
Twenty-five years ago, our advisory practice began with the intention and commitment of providing clients thoughtful and informed advice, expertise on building collections of lasting value, and museum-quality services for the care of their art collections. Over the years, we have expanded to include sales and strategic planning for collectors and foundations, preserving artists' legacies through collection and estate planning, and advising on artwork appraisals.
We have advised and appraised numerous significant collections throughout the United States and abroad, including the collections of Michael Crichton, the Robert B. and Beatrice C. Mayer Family, The Terra Foundation of American Art, The Robert Rauschenberg Foundation, The Joan Mitchell Foundation, The Thomas Hart Benton Trust, and the Star of Hope Foundation (Robert Indiana), amounting to over $5 billion in fine art assets and completing art appraisals totaling over $6.5 billion.
In 2021, we launched our interview podcast series, Reading the Art World, which presents interviews between Megan Fox Kelly and authors of recently released or upcoming art-centric books. The conversations explore timely subjects in the art world, based on artists and market trends along with published art historical writing. Podcast interviewees include art critic Jerry Saltz; journalist Georgina Adam; former President and CEO of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Daniel Weiss; Former Director of the Yale Center for British Art and current Executive Director of the Rauschenberg Foundation, Courtney J. Martin; cultural strategist, András Szántó; art collector and philanthropist, Marguerite Steed Hoffman; among many others.
We are grateful to all our clients and colleagues for being part of our practice and look forward to continuing to provide thoughtful guidance in the years to come.
