Art Advisory FAQ

What is art advisory?

Art advisory is a tailored service for acquiring and building a collection of contemporary art. STANCE provides independent guidance on artworks, artists, and market context for collectors in Stockholm and internationally.

 

Who is art advisory for?

Our advisory services are designed for both new and established collectors. We work with private clients, businesses, and institutions seeking access to significant contemporary artworks.

 

How does the advisory process work?

We begin with a conversation to understand your interests, aesthetic direction, and collecting goals. Based on this, we source and present carefully selected works and guide clients through viewing, due diligence, and acquisition.

 

Can you source works beyond the gallery program?

Yes. Through our international network of galleries, artists, and collectors, we source artworks across the primary and secondary markets when appropriate.

 

Do you work with first-time collectors?

Yes. We regularly advise clients who are beginning to collect contemporary art and provide guidance on artists, pricing, editions, and long-term collection development.

 

Do you advise on both the primary and secondary art market?

Yes. We advise across both markets depending on the artwork, availability, and the client’s collecting strategy.

 

Can you help build a long-term art collection?

Yes. Many clients work with us over time to develop a coherent contemporary art collection. Our advisory includes acquisition strategy, artist research, and collection development.

 

Do you also advise businesses or corporate collections?

Yes. STANCE works with companies and private spaces seeking to build meaningful art collections for offices, hospitality environments, and architectural projects.

 

Do you assist with logistics such as shipping and installation?

Yes. We coordinate shipping, customs, framing, and installation through trusted partners in Stockholm and internationally.

 

How are advisory fees structured?

Fees depend on the scope of the project and are discussed transparently in advance. Advisory can be structured as a project fee or aligned with acquisitions.

 

Can you work with international collectors?

Yes. STANCE regularly works with collectors internationally and facilitates acquisitions across Europe and globally.
