Since 2018, we have been advising private and institutional collectors to start and care for their digital art collections. Please see some public examples below on this page.
With expertise in blockchain-based art, AI art, video, and generative art, our team and network allows collectors to have the confidence to explore new media art and extend their contemporary art collection to the exciting world of digital art.
Services We Offer
Customised Education & Insights
After thoroughly assessing your areas of interest, existing collecting tastes, and goals, we help you learn about the digital art space with 1-1 sessions where we cover the current news and relevant art events near you, introduce exciting acquisition opportunities, and update you on the state of your collection overall.
Direct Artist Relationships
Via our extensive network and relationship with galleries, marketplaces and direct knowledge of emerging and established digital artists, we ensure that you are put directly in contact with them for (virtual) studio visits, calls, and know about new works as soon as they become available.
Acquisitions, Loans & Sales
We assist you in the acquisition of digital artwork by managing the process with artists, galleries, or marketplaces. If you are interested in blockchain-based art, we cover all the technicalities behind opening a wallet and purchasing NFTs. We assist with exhibition loans and resells as well.
Collection Website & Social Media
An important part of collecting is the documentation to contextualize and explain artworks, gather all information in one place to share your collection with friends and family, and even leave a legacy to your children. For public collections, we also manage social media accounts (Instagram, X, LinkedIn).
Press Relations
For public-facing collectors, we have secured interviews in art and technology publications, along with panels at art conferences and art fairs. We even published coffee table books for collectors who wish to use this way to share their collection with their beloved ones.
Display Options
We help collectors display their digital art collections in their homes via projectors, digital art screens, prints, and more. We partner with the best display brands and specialists and the artists who are the best to tell collectors how to properly display their works. Your home does not need to look like the Apple Store or a TV shop. We can help.
Security & Privacy
We understand the importance of preserving digital art to overcome the possible obsolescence of current technology. We work with security partners and offer the best industry practices to ensure your digital artworks are safe. For collectors of blockchain-based art for example, a hardware cold wallet is recommended along with a subscription to ClubNFT that secures the assets on the blockchain.
Appraisals & Documentation
We understand the importance of art documentation to explain the artworks collected, but also for insurance and tax partners. All works are duly appraised regularly and every year we do assist our clients in submitting their taxes (this is however at their request and not tax, legal or financial advice).
