What is the process for hiring an art consultant?
The first step is for those interested in buying art to contact LPDM and explain his/her specific needs. We generally have an initial in-person meeting with clients to determine taste, areas of interest and to see what kind of art a client enjoys and wishes to purchase. LPDM is based in New York, but is flexible if travel is required. For those clients who are farther afield we often proceed by telephone and email/mail. LPDM then enters into confidential art advisory contracts with clients. Then the fun part begins… shopping for the art! LPDM makes purchase recommendations to clients and then handles all aspects of the transactions.
