Our Services
At Emily Friedman Fine Art, we believe that collecting art is a deeply personal journey. We partner closely with our clients to navigate every aspect of the art world with transparency, care, and a commitment to responsible stewardship. Whether you are looking to acquire your very first piece, thoughtfully manage a growing collection, or find the right home for a treasured work, we are here to provide highly tailored, end-to-end guidance every step of the way.
Art Sourcing & Acquisitions
We provide access to both primary and secondary market opportunities, utilizing our relationships with galleries, artist studios, auctions, and private collections. We conduct thorough market research and pricing insights for every potential acquisition, taking care of all negotiations and facilitating the purchase seamlessly. To ensure your new artwork arrives safely, we oversee the logistics of shipping, custom framing, and final installation in your space.
Selling & Consignment
When it is time to evolve your collection, finding the right path forward requires strategy and discretion. We are active participants in the market in two distinct ways: we selectively buy works directly for our own private inventory, and we also take pieces on consignment to sell to our network of collectors, private dealers, galleries, and institutions.
We manage the entire selling process from start to finish, including market research, outreach, logistics, and payment collection. If you have a piece you are considering parting with, we would love to learn more about it. Please contact us at bri@emilyfriedmanfineart.com and include an image of the piece and artwork details.
Collection Management
We take the administrative burden off your shoulders by maintaining comprehensive records of your acquisitions, including sales documents, condition reports, provenance, and high-resolution imagery. We catalog your collection into our secure internal database and provide you with a beautifully organized, private digital folder so your records are always accessible. Additionally, we advise on the nuances of art insurance, coordinate with trusted museum-quality conservators and framers, and handle valuation updates to protect your investment over time.
Curatorial Design & Installation
Art comes to life when it is integrated thoughtfully into your home. We offer comprehensive on-site styling and hanging guidance for both new and existing works in your collection. By creating visual mockups and planning placements that respect your home's unique architecture and lighting, we ensure every piece is showcased beautifully. We coordinate with interior designers, contractors, and professional art installers so the final presentation is flawless
Auction & Art Fair Advising
Navigating art fairs and fast-paced auctions can be overwhelming. We act as your dedicated eyes and ears.
We preview early access materials and catalogues to bring you tailored recommendations. Whether we are traveling to fairs and auctions on your behalf to preview works solo, or walking the floor right beside you, we handle the registration logistics, real-time strategy, and final bidding or negotiations so you can focus on enjoying the experience.
Legacy & Estate Planning
We understand that art is not just an asset, but a meaningful legacy. We provide sensitive, high-level guidance to help you identify the long-term goals for your collection—whether that involves passing it down to the next generation, exploring philanthropic donations to museums, or strategic liquidation. We collaborate with your estate attorneys, family offices, and CPAs to ensure your art holdings are perfectly aligned with your broader estate plans.

Every collection is unique, and our relationship with you is built on trust, open communication, and shared appreciation for beautiful things. If you would like to discuss how we can assist you with your art journey, please reach out to us directly.
