The Lesser Known Effects Of Corporate Art Collections

By Carlene Tibbetts


Corporate art collections have varying purposes. Some companies collect work to help their employees to think creatively. There are some who want them to act as a part of their corporate identity. There are very few companies that use art as a way to gain returns in the long term from sales. Most often, companies don't use painting and sculpture for its financial potential.

Contemporary companies acquire artworks to project an idea onto their clients. Art has always been particularly good at expressing ideas and ideologies. Proactive collections are those that are acquired as part of a marketing campaign to create brand awareness. Paintings have the ability to generate an amazing level of public interest, which works well for a corporation.

Raleigh art galleries sometimes collect purely to support new artists since this is seen as a way to promote a more civil population. Companies that focus on this reason most often use painters who are largely unknown because the support helps them to develop as artists. Max Hayslette is an example of an artist who is in the middle of his career.

Rockefeller is probably the first one to have used paintings for reasons that were not aesthetic. Company innovations that are popular today use collecting as a method of reflecting their company's identity and standards. Sometimes it's also helpful for reflecting the kind of clients and workers a company has.

One important function of a collection is to make the work environment more energizing and exciting for employees. For many companies, creativity and motivation are crucial for staff who need to be constantly developing new and unusual ideas. Paintings used in their work environments have the power to make employees think in a different way than they usually do so that they can be more successful at what they do.

The global interest that exists in corporate ownership of paintings is substantial. Businesses tend to be more public about their acquisitions than many private collectors are. They also have sufficient financial backing to invest in impressive work. The attention companies receive from the publishing industry is a form of marketing that is invaluable.

Rockerfeller's corporate art collections have now reached a total of 30 000 artworks. The great masters are frequently purchased but contemporary companies are more interested in providing support for developing talents, so there is a greater focus on new artists. It could be said that young, lesser known work can be more evocative purely because it hasn't been seen before. This could well make it more powerful than famous work.
