Developing an art collection requires time, energy, resources and most of all, passion. It is often difficult for collectors and their families to contemplate the significance and worth of their assets during their lifetimes, let alone the impact and consequences of the inevitable disposition of their collections. What do I do with the moose head? Inheriting art (or objects) and having a legacy plan, whether it involves keeping, selling, donating, conserving, or insuring, are all part of art stewardship.
With advances in technology and communication, the art market has never been more dynamic and accessible. However, the necessity of art legacy planning is more crucial than ever.
