No matter which part of the
art world you're in
............... only one source of information can put you out in front: The International Directory of Corporate Art Collections.
In spite of the ups and downs in the economy, the corporate art world is still vigorous, and the International Directory of Corporate Art Collections on CD-ROM helps you to see the whole picture -- what new collections are being formed and which established ones are expanding.
In continuous publication since 1983, the Directory of Corporate Art Collections is still the only comprehensive reference for corporate art collecting around the world. Each listing -- over 1300 in all -- is detailed, comprehensive, and critical to you. And its CD-ROM format gives you immediate and easy retrieval of the information on any subject you want to research.
As any investor in the stock market knows, the corporate and business world changes constantly -- which also means that corporate art collections change as well.
When we published the directory in a printed book form, we found that between the two or three-year intervals between updates, there were extensive changes -- new collections appearing, some companies merging with others, some collections sold, and some companies disappearing completely.
Because the Directory is now published in a CD-ROM format, we are able to update and add new collections constantly, and we have therefore eliminated the publication of year-specific editions.
We check and update the information for an average of about 75-100 collections every month and we add new collections or make corrections on existing listings whenever we become aware of changes. It is an ongoing process and takes approximately 18 months to 2 years to make a complete cycle, but there is never a point when the "job is done" because a corporation's strategy can change overnight! This updating process has made the directory a constantly growing and evolving project -- a living "work in progress."
Since the directory is an ongoing project and is constantly being added to and edited, every month, the latest versions of the Directory files will be uploaded onto the website in a protected location, so that subscribers will be able to access the newest version for a period of one year. When you order the directory and I send you the CD, I will enclose a password and user ID so that you can locate the latest version of the directory and copy the files onto your computer.
