ART FOCUS - Source Art launches into an artful new year

Along with wishing you an inspired start to the new year, we would like to take this opportunity to further introduce, or reintroduce, ourselves to you, so you can get a better sense of our services and the way we assist clients and designers in the art procurement process.

Source Art is a designer-focused art consulting company, offering guidance and support throughout the art procurement and collection management process. Leaping off the designer's vision and sourcing from an extensive range of artworks, from emerging to blue-chip, we employ our customized process to develop diverse art collections and portfolios of note.


Inspired by close collaboration with designers, gallerists, and artists, Source Art’s collective expertise elevates both art & design.

We source, track, and refine art selections, create renderings, and bring art on-memo to assist with acquisitions. With our extensive network and wide range of experience, we thoughtfully attend to every aspect of procurement.

Source Art's online platform

Once registered, you will have access to our site's global art resource and design professionals' functionality

To better serve our clients, we have developed a comprehensive online resource that contains a broad pool of artwork as well as our art management system. The integrated set of tools benefits your projects through access to our art plan process and the whole of the art world, including the highest-level galleries around the globe.


Reach out to learn more about our exclusive, B2B platform and how it can benefit your projects by registering and accessing our site’s resource component!



  • Browse a wide range of artwork
  • Select art and build custom collections
  • Share your selections as branded presentations

The project builder tool organizes the art for your projects, including detailed project-related information, listing potential art areas with the ability to place chosen artworks directly into the art plan from your collections.

This is all available to work with, fully supported, in collaboration with the Source Art team, or independently.


If you have a range of projects, some may have a scope and budget that would be better suited to independently navigating the resource, utilizing our complementary artplan management tools on your own.

The Source Art team is happy to assist and help you figure out how to best utilize our system and services for each project.

Sourcing art specifically for each project, we explore a broad range of mediums and genres, and employ a variety of methods to assist in the acquisitions. We can bring art on memo and utilize other visualization tools to ensure the art is in alignment with the overall design.

By informing clients about the artists and artwork, referencing historical context and provenance, as well as providing updated Art Plan Documents, we keep the designer and client aware of information critical to making effective decisions.

Every aspect of procurement is thoughtfully managed. We handle all communications and logistics, working with galleries and artists throughout the process. We provide shipping, delivery and art installation along with additional related services like framing, art lighting, and fabrication, incorporating costs from outside providers. Where it best serves the project, we initiate and navigate custom-commissioned artworks, promoting close collaboration amongst all parties.

We can perform comprehensive market research to assess artwork value. Source Art completes the art advisory with a digital and physical record of each collection, ensuring art purchases are well-documented for collection, insurance, and investment purposes.

ART FOCUS - Homage to a Lost Icon

This month we celebrate the life and work of Mel Bochner, the trailblazing Conceptual Artist whose pictorial and theoretical legacy will challenge and inspire artists now and for generations to come. Tribute to Mel Bochner 1940 - 2025 Image of Bochner in his studio, photo courtesy Kyle Knodell Mel Bochner is recognized as one of the leading figures in the development of Conceptual art in New York in the 1960s and 1970s. Emerging at a time when painting was increasingly discussed as outmoded, Bochner became part of a new generation of artists - including Eva Hesse, Donald Judd, and Robert Smithson - who broke away from Abstract Expressionism and traditional compositional devices, radically reimagining visual art. _____________________________________________________________________________________ Through a series of provocations into art-making, Bochner transformed our current definition of art itself.
