Art Consultants Group acts as resource consultants to Designers, Architects, Facility Managers, Healthcare and Corporate Clients, as well as others who decide upon artwork for a particular facility. Our process, whether it be for building an art program or choosing a few works for a specific area, centers around communication and understanding the client. We often tailor the process to our clients, but the following is a description of how projects for purchasing artworks often develop. We begin by setting up a meeting at the client's location where we are able to talk to the people involved with the selection process. There is often a walk through of the space and then an opportunity to look at visual materials that we have brought. This allows for a dialogue to begin so we can get a sense of a visual direction for the space and for the client aesthetically. From given floor plans and onsite inspection we can evaluate the scale and placement of art best suited for the area. Initially, if a budget has been formulated we will coordinate a presentation ensured to stay within capital guidelines and provide the highest quality art within that category. In situations where there is some element of doubt, and advice is requested, we will freely offer our professional knowledge. During the second phase of the project, we take everything that we have learned from our initial communications with the client and put together a written proposal and package of artworks for the client to review. We welcome any and all feedback from the client after reviewing this package so that we may use this information to further refine the selection of artworks to the needs of the client. This is how the process initially gets underway. Each project has its own variables along the way to completion and we develop and change the process according to the client as we proceed step by step.
