About Crown Fine Art
next page �� previous page
The foundation of our business at Crown Fine Art lies in providing expert, specialized care in packing and transporting valuable works of art anywhere in the world.
As suppliers of fine art logistics for museums and galleries, Crown Fine Art views the handling and transportation of irreplaceable objects a particular privilege. Everyone involved—from planning to packing, handling and transportation—is completely dedicated to the fine art business and to the safety of the art that is in their care.
Our range of experience in support of museums and galleries includes every aspect of planning exhibitions or logistics, from single art works to entire collections. Our growing network of 15 locations includes many of the world’s major art centers, with an especially strong presence in Europe, the Middle East and the Far East, often providing Crown Fine Art specialist operations in the country of origin and in the exhibition location. The result: greater efficiency, reduced coordination effort and paperwork, and reduced risk associated with supplier handovers. We organize the entire process, including skilled packing, customized crating, careful collection, transportation to destination and delicate unpacking.
Sharing works of art and, by extension, one’s enthusiasm for them, is inarguably a good thing. Crown Fine Art serves the major art centers of the world to make sharing art more practical with a complete range of specialized services including:
