Collectors

Collecting is about more than just acquiring works of art; it's about giving your passion and curiosity a purpose, and shaping the legacy you want to leave behind. All our work is conducted with integrity, respect and complete transparency.

Corporate Collections

For companies who want to build collections that go beyond decoration, we help shape your cultural identity, reflect your values, and inspire your teams. From strategy to curation and display, each collection becomes a living part of your brand story and workplace culture.

GOOD COLLECTORS ARE OUR BUSINESS

Informed advice is hard to find in the art market, and today's collectors need it now more than ever.

At The Twentieth, we have two decades of experience working with prominent philanthropists, museums, and foundations to build a stronger arts and culture ecosystem. Our work is built on the values of curiosity, integrity, cultural responsibility, and long-term vision.

The Twentieth Art Advisory embodies those same values, offering guidance and support to collectors who see themselves as more than just buyers or investors, but as participants: stewards, patrons, partners in building the future of art.

We help our clients cut through the noise, ignore the trends and fads, and focus on enduring cultural relevance, building collections that resonate over time. We encourage you to be courageous, spend as much time learning as buying, visit artist-run spaces, and attend emerging fairs and biennials alongside major ones. We will show you around and help you create true relationships by meeting artists, speaking to curators, and learning from other collectors.

The art world is at an inflection point, and we want collectors to be respected, to be responsible, to be the next generation of patrons in a new art world.
