What We Do
Ciani Curatorial is committed to addressing the diverse interests of our clientele. We specialize in developing and enhancing art collections that resonate with personal, intellectual, and aesthetic goals.
​
Our methodology is grounded in curatorial expertise. We integrate art-historical scholarship with strategic involvement in the art market to create collections with enduring value. We emphasize discretion, integrity, and transparency to navigate the complexities inherent in the art world.
​
We provide specialized research and pedagogical services designed to enhance the scholarly authenticity and contextual comprehension of artworks and collections, thereby amplifying their cultural and historical significance. By analyzing the historical, cultural, and artistic contexts of individual pieces, we deliver object files, logistical support, and curatorial initiatives.​​
​
Our process begins with comprehensive consultations and targeted research to ensure that each collection aligns with the client’s aspirations while deepening their engagement with art. With a foundation in art history and an awareness of market dynamics, we address the practicalities of acquiring, living with, and preserving art. Leveraging our galleries, institutions, and artists network, we identify opportunities for meaningful acquisitions and innovative curatorial strategies.
​
In addition to serving private collectors, we collaborate with family offices, businesses, corporations, and select real estate developers on initiatives ranging from collection building to larger-scale, publicly oriented curatorial exhibitions and projects. Beyond the acquisition process, we manage all facets of collection management, which include shipping, insurance, cataloging, installation, and database maintenance. This comprehensive approach enables clients to concentrate on the intellectual and aesthetic enjoyment of their collections.​​
​
As collections grow and evolve, we work closely with legal advisors to ensure the long-term stewardship and legacy of the works we help cultivate, safeguarding their impact on future generations.
