Our Commitment as Collectors

What are Inversion Art's commitments when buying work?

Inversion Art aims to be a leader in responsible art collecting. We see ourselves as stewards of both the art that we purchase and the artists we work with. We have put in place important guidelines for how we will manage our collection, all of which are designed to align ourselves with the long term success of our artists.

  • Inversion will hold all work it acquires for at least five years (unless placing work in an institutional collection)

  • Inversion pays artists a 10% resale royalty on the profit of work sold from its collection

  • When considering the sale of a work from the collection, Inversion will consult with the artist first (when possible) and with the artist's representatives (when appropriate)

  • Inversion prioritizes placing work with institutions, unless otherwise directed by its artists

  • Inversion will never be the first to take work to auction

  • Inversion makes work available for exhibition by institutions, galleries, and other organizations with qualified staffs and track records of exhibiting significant works of art by living artists

  • Inversion consistently seeks out unique and novel opportunities to display its collection and promote the work of its artists
