Style & Services
Art Program Development
For organizations ready to build something lasting. We establish a collection strategy and vision, define acquisition criteria, and create a roadmap that grows with the organization. This way, the collection becomes more coherent and meaningful over time, not less.
Space Curation & Installation
From the first concept to the final nail. We identify the right works for the space, manage procurement and logistics, and oversee every step of installation— so the finished result looks exactly as it was envisioned, and nothing is left to chance.
Art Sourcing & Acquisition
Access to galleries, private studios, and collections across the Bay Area and beyond. We know where to find work that is right for a specific space, not just beautiful in isolation, but considered against the brief, the architecture, and everything around it.
Artist Commissions & Partnerships
For clients who want something made specifically for them. We work directly with artists to develop original works created for a particular space: pieces with a provenance, a story, and a relationship that no commercial catalog can offer.
How It Works
STUDY
Every project begins with a conversation about the space itself. We conduct a site visit, review floor plans and architectural details, and ask the right questions: how is this space used? What does this space need to feel like? What could it become? From this, we build a project proposal, a budget, and a clear framework for how we'll work together.
SELECTION
We present curated look books: hand-chosen works selected specifically for the space and the project's intent. Client feedback shapes what comes next: we move into acquisition, or we continue refining the search. The process closes with a detailed art plan: final selections, a price list, and an itemized procurement and installation schedule.
INSTALLATION
Art is delivered to site by a team of professional handlers; the process managed and directed by an Artus Operandi consultant. Any framing is completed prior to delivery and itemized in the final price list before approval. Insurance valuation and any accompanying paperwork such as provenance or certificates of authenticity will be transferred to appropriate parties.
