Art Advisory

Investing in a collection can be difficult to navigate, having spent the recent seven years developing relationships with local, national and international galleries, artists, gallerists and key figures in the art industry, Franca has cultivated an extensive database of artists and available artworks. Her experience has allowed her to become familiar with many of the unknowns in the art market.

Combining this knowledge with sixteen years in construction and development with her family business, Franca has a unique knowledge of both space, interior layouts and aesthetics enabling her to curate a bespoke personal collection which will both exude beauty and become a lucrative investment for years to come.

In her initial client meeting Franca will establish your needs and expectations in looking to purchase or lease an artwork. Looking to a private commission or selecting from a completed body of work her experience and knowledge will not only assist in finding a work that the client will truly appreciate but also result in a process which is enjoyable, informative and meets collection criteria including financial and aesthetic objectives.

Franca's services also extend beyond the initial sourcing and acquiring and artwork, other facets to putting a collection together includes:

Installation of the artwork
Organising insurance of the work
Documenting, photographing and cataloguing the artwork for collection purposes.
Collection essays and artists biographies.
