Buying Art: Frequently Asked Questions
How We Can Help
Artwork Selection
We prepare a carefully considered selection of artworks based on your preferences, available space, budget and intended setting. Recommendations may include painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, mixed media and works on paper.
Artist and Artwork Research
We provide background information about selected artists, their practice, exhibition history and the context of individual works, helping you make informed and confident decisions.
Art for Interiors and Projects
We work with interior designers, architects, businesses and private clients to identify artworks for residential, commercial and public-facing spaces.
Sourcing Artworks
Where appropriate, CISTA ARTS can assist with sourcing specific artists, styles or bodies of work, with particular experience in contemporary art connected to the Middle East and its international communities.
Purchase and Delivery Support
We coordinate communication relating to availability, payment and delivery. Framing, insurance, customs, installation and specialist shipping can also be discussed according to the requirements of each purchase.
How the Process Works
1. Initial Conversation
Tell us about the type of work you are looking for, your preferred styles or artists, intended space, approximate dimensions and budget.
2. Curated Selection
We prepare a tailored selection of available artworks for your consideration.
3. Review and Refinement
We discuss your response and refine the selection where necessary.
4. Acquisition
Once you have selected a work, we confirm the price, availability, payment arrangements and delivery options.
Advisory Fees
The initial consultation and artwork selection service are offered at no additional advisory fee when an artwork is purchased through CISTA ARTS.
The artwork price and any applicable delivery, insurance, customs, framing or installation costs will be confirmed before purchase.
Bespoke research, independent sourcing and larger commercial projects may be subject to an agreed professional fee.
Art for Different Collections and Spaces
Our available works cover a range of artists, media, scales and price points. Whether you are making a first acquisition or developing an existing collection, we aim to introduce works with artistic integrity and lasting relevance.
International Enquiries and Delivery
CISTA ARTS works with artists and clients internationally. Delivery options are discussed individually according to the artwork’s location, size, medium and destination.
Where required, we can help coordinate specialist art shipping, insurance and customs documentation through appropriate service providers.
