Collections Management

In addition to art advisory, The Spite Haus will also help you with your current art collection. We have years of collections management experience in development, storage, and preservation of fine art and book collections.

Collections management allows organizations and individuals with items of historical or cultural significance to safeguard their collections. It is a method for securing, maintaining, and organizing physical control over fine art, historical objects, and archaeological artifacts. It improves access and use of the collections for display and loans (as part of an exhibit), for research, estate management, and for educational purposes.

Some methods, efforts and policies that are often employed as part of collections management are:

  • Developing strategies and guidelines for the collection.

  • Establishing proper documentation and preservation of the collection items.

  • Analyzing, appointing, and implementing a collection management system (CMS).

  • Accessioning and cataloging records for the collection.

  • Maintaining a database of the inventory within the collection.
