Description
This session will introduce resources and approaches to evaluating hidden wealth and identifying the interests of potential prospects through their art collections. Art collections also reveal the interest of prospects. Because the nature of collecting art, there are no fair or transparent vehicles to track and determine its value of art. As researchers, we need to be open to all kinds of resources including auction databases, news coverage and other anecdotal evidence to put together a whole picture of the prospect’s wealth.
