Start SubmissionOur Focus
We are particularly interested in artists who sit on the periphery of the main canon. These are talents with significant museum presence and critical acclaim, but who may not be household names.
While we have specific expertise in Post-War American Art, we assess every submission individually based on quality, condition, and market timing.

Frequently Asked Questions
We review every submission personally. Within 48 hours, you'll receive a response with our initial assessment, including whether the work is something we can help with and, if so, a preliminary sense of value and recommended approach.
We consider recent auction results, private sale comparables, the artist's current market trajectory, condition, provenance, and exhibition history. For consignments, we discuss pricing strategy with you before listing.
Commission varies depending on the work's value and complexity of sale. We discuss terms transparently before any agreement. For outright purchases, there is no commission—you receive a direct offer.
It depends on the work and market conditions. Some pieces sell within weeks; others may take several months to find the right buyer. We provide regular updates and can discuss timeline expectations upfront.
We don't have a strict minimum, but our services are best suited for works valued at $5,000 and above. If your work falls outside our typical range, we're happy to suggest alternative avenues.
Yes. We work with executors, families, and estate attorneys to evaluate and sell collections. We can handle single works or entire collections, and are experienced in navigating the particular considerations of estate sales.
