Based on our extensive experience working closely with a range of artists, art dealers, galleries and collectors for over 15 years, we have developed a FileMaker based collections database system to handle all aspects of artwork management.
The ‘basic framework’ we have developed is designed to be flexible and can be quickly customised to suit the exact requirement of each client as we are aware that every client has their own requirements
The database framework includes a number of different modules, these include:
- Contacts/Clients
- Artwork information (tailored for a single or multiple artists/fabricators)
- Images (multiple images for a single record)
- Editions
- Location and shipping reports
- Storage information
- Insurance and Valuations
- Condition reports
- Fabrication/Restoration Costs
- Retails/Sales information (including invoices)
- General Notes
The stored information can be used to produce:
- Artwork Data Sheets
- Stock/Status Reports (with and without images)
- Searchable web site (Instant web publishing and custom with php)
- Sales invoices
- Shipping/Sales Labels
The total list is fairly extensive and additional features can be added as required.
