Artvest Partners is an independent advisory firm with over four decades of experience in art and finance. Founded in 2009, it counsels private clients, museums, foundations, and Fortune 500 companies on acquisitions, dispositions, and business strategies related to art, and it also arranges art financing for private collectors and dealers. The firm supports clients navigating complex, high-value art transactions and broad strategic challenges in the art market. Based in New York City, Artvest has played a central role in establishing TEFAF New York fairs at the Park Avenue Armory, launching two editions per year since 2016 through a joint venture with TEFAF NL. The organization emphasizes independence, objectivity, transparency, and privacy in its advisory approach. Its work has included high-profile engagements such as a 2013 Sotheby’s analysis for Citibank’s Equity Research Group and a 2014 assignment for the Detroit Institute of Arts and the City of Detroit to assess a potential bankruptcy sale of the collection, for which it served as an expert witness.
