2. Art audit
You
have several artworks - and are not sure about their value, their
condition, or what to do with them. Should you keep and conserve,
display them, donate or sell? And if you decide let's say to sell, where
and how do you go about it? Too many questions, too difficult ....
Before you reach for the too-hard basket - reach for the phone on 02 9977 7764 or email info@bhfineart.com to see how we can clarify and simplify for you. Our
art audit will assess your artworks from an expert point of view - so
you will get all the important information including the things that you
would not have thought of to make a sound decision and can proceed
successfully with professional assistance.

4) Looking after your art
Time and climate can affect your artworks badly. Re-framing and conservation can make your artwork shine again - and ensure its longevity and value.
A
close network of specialist framers and restorers means we can help you
look after your art so you can enjoy it for years to come.
Restoration
and re-framing will give a new lease of life to
your valuable works.
In Art Care, you can see some of the paintings that we have helped maintain.
5) Advising collectors You may want to speak with an independent expert before buying an artwork and spending considerable sums on it. We provide you with unbiased and arms-length advice, as we do not hold stock that we try and sell.
Read more on our art advice service on buying art with a structured approach, ensuring not only a great experience, but also sound decisions.
6) Curating fine art websites
There are many undeservedly forgotten artists, who are worthy of more exposure.
Instead of books, the internet provides a great alternative for creating a worldwide view of an artist. We have taken this idea on board and create curated fine art websites. Antonio Dattilo-Rubbo, Norman Lloyd, Robert Mitchell have received a renewed attention thanks to the websites we created for families, collectors and institutions. 7) Art projects
Maybe you have brought together a large art collection over the years and are concerned for its future. Or you have inherited numerous artworks and don't know what they are, what they are worth, and what to do with them.
That's when you need a broad, expert view from the outside, and lateral thinking - to come up with a sound plan for proceeding.
We have assisted many clients in similar situations when the task seemed overwhelming to them. Find out what we can do for you.
