COLLECTION MANAGMENT
& DEVELOPMENT

I have dedicated the last five years to providing collection management services for large, established and important collections and assisting clients at the beginning of their journey.

New Collector

If you are new to collecting Aboriginal art, own a few pieces, or are thinking about buying and need considered, individual advice, I can take the fear out of the process and introduce you to the fun and excitement of developing a collection.

Together we will examine what you would like to achieve, whether it be filling key walls in your home or office or building a collection long term, and develop a considered plan to support that vision within the scope of your budget, environment and aesthetic.   

We will also discuss provenance, collecting ethically and the Aboriginal art market in Australia and abroad.

Established Collector

If you have been collecting for a while, need assistance in consolidating your current works and forming a considered vision for future development, I can advise on strategy and streamline the process.   

Whatever your stage we can explore:

  • Developing a vision and strategy for the future

  • Advice on consolidation and expansion: what, when and where to buy and sell

  • Managing logistics, shipping, framing and conservation

  • Establishing a cloud based collection management system

  • Exhibition management

Please feel free to get in touch

TESTIMONIAL:

I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Greer Adams. She is a total professional.

I first met Greer over 6 years ago as part of a search for a collections manager. Greer immediately stood out as both approachable and professional, with a great knowledge of the industry.

Over the past 6 years, Greer has overseen all aspects of managing my collection. This includes day to day operations, the implementation and management of a cloud based collection management system and all logistics such as storage, shipping and exhibition loans. In all these aspects, Greer has shown great creativity and has always focused on the most cost effective solution available.

In addition, Greer has utilised her extensive contacts and industry knowledge to implement carefully thought out sales strategies, which have resulted in highly successful exhibitions, private sales and auctions.

The Australian Indigenous art market is extremely close-knit and requires an extremely knowledgeable person who can exercise great flexibility to achieve above average results.     

Finally, and perhaps most importantly, the management of a large collection balance shorter term goals with a view to the future. Greer's strategic thinking has always provided this balance by maximising the returns on immediate opportunities as part of a plan to overall, long-term success.

I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Greer Adams. She is a total professional without any of the pretence.
