Selling Art in our auctions in just three steps

If you decide to sell your object we will take care of the rest. Our experts will outline a strategy to place it in the most suitable auction.

3. Payment
Around 5 weeks after your object was sold in one of our auctions you will receive a written statement. In the following we will make a transfer to your bank account or send you a collection check.
In case you sell your object directly to us or to a buyer we found for you, you will receive payment after the purchase contract has been closed and the artwork has been handed over.

Individual alignment of your collection
You have compiled a private art collection over the past years, and now you face the decision which direction it should take?
Ketterer Kunst is at your side in all matters regarding a possible reorientation of your collection: Does it make sense to scale down? Is it advisable to sell the collection or to give it to a foundation? Depending on the focus of your collection, a combination of different measures can also make sense, for instance a stronger focus on single areas while selling other parts of the collection.
In a first absolutely free of charge and non-binding consulting talk we can already outline a general strategy. Based on this first talk we will prepare a custom-made offer for your collection:
