At YFAC, we differentiate ourselves through a meticulous and rational approach to art advising, setting a new standard in the industry. While many advisors rely on subjective opinions—“This painting is magnificent!”—we strive to provide our clients with insights rooted in research, analysis, and a deep understanding of the art market.

 

Our evaluation process is anchored in clear criteria: the artist’s technique, their historical significance, and their unique signature style. We believe that every piece of art should have a tangible narrative and place within the broader context of art history. By focusing on these aspects, we ensure that our clients’ investments are not only aesthetically pleasing but also resilient and sustainable over time.

 

But we don’t stop there. We delve deeper, considering factors such as the artist’s gallery network, press reviews, and educational background. We evaluate the stability and reputation of their representing galleries, the critical reception of their work, and their academic and professional trajectory. This comprehensive review allows us to make strategic recommendations that align with each collector’s long-term vision and financial goals.

 

This methodical approach enables us to guide our clients in building collections that are coherent, valuable, and reflective of a well-rounded understanding of the art world. It’s not about what looks good in the moment—it’s about what holds value, both now and in the future.
