Headquartered in New York City, Cayre Art Group is a full service art advisory, with a focus on modern and contemporary art from 1960 to the present. |
Living amidst great art is a supreme joy, and an art collection and support for the arts are among the most important legacies that we can leave to future generations. |
While art is not merely a financial tool, the amount of money which artworks command today is staggering. Pricing is this market’s greatest uncertainty: why should one work cost ten thousand dollars, while another costs ten million? Regardless of individual goals, anyone who wants to own art today needs advice on navigating this market, and we provide our clients with comprehensive, experienced, and continuous insight. Access here is fundamental: access to the best artworks, and access to the most exhaustive information. |
Underlying our operations are very close relationships with many of today’s most important artists, galleries, curators, and art historians; and a fastidious approach to research and scholarship. It is important to note that much of what collectors buy today and what advisors “recommend” is skewed by a myopic focus on what is fashionable at the moment. We are determined to help our clients avoid this pitfall. As history has demonstrated time and time again, the most important artists of an era are often the ones who were at the time overlooked by the market. We take a decidedly long-term and diversified approach. |
Trust and discretion are at the core of our relationships, and whether buying or selling, we make sure that every transaction is both entirely transparent to our clients and held in strict confidence. Depending on individual needs, we also assist with all aspects of managing a collection, including shipping, installation, storage, insurance, coordinating loans of works for institutional exhibitions, and maintaining comprehensive archives, as well as fostering museum patronage, and assisting with the particular needs of family offices, trusts, and foundations. |
