WHY BUILD A COLLECTION?

Primarily, a private collection is to be enjoyed and to enrich the life of the collector. One-of-a-kind art pieces are also an excellent investment.

Additionally, a considered collection protects and progresses the artistic and cultural heritage of a nation.

WHAT SERVICE DO WE PROVIDE?

Our professional all-round service ensures complete protection of valuable artwork. We provide all essential documentation, arrange storage, shipping and insurance, as well as fully assisting in framing selection and safeguarding installation.

For the pieces in your collection, we also keep track of relative performance in international auction houses, so that you will be aware of the current estimated value of your investments.

Supplying impressive art to hotels

Hotels need to stand out from the crowd as both business travellers and tourists have increasingly higher and sophisticated demands for their accommodation.

Unique artwork that adorns the walls of a hotel creates an ambience that goes above and beyond ordinary hotel decoration, which results in a pleasurable atmosphere for guests.

Etihad Modern Art Gallery has a wealth of international artists that can supply a broad spectrum of impressive art pieces that will augment and elevate an existing design concept.

ENHANCED GUEST EXPERIENCE

Wealthy and discerning hotel guests are increasingly knowledgable and critical regarding contemporary art.

The ideal situation is to complement interior design with imaginative, eye-catching and memorable art, so much so, that hotel customers enquire as to ‘who is the artist?’.

Then a hotelier can rest assured that their investment in quality art has paid off and fulfilled its primary role of creating an enhanced guest experience.

The EMAG specialist has worked hand-in-hand with new-build hotels, prior to opening, to supply hundreds of pieces of art that elevate an ‘off-plan’ concept that ensured a magnificent grand opening.
