Before You Collect: Questions Every New Collector Should Ask Every great collection starts with curiosity, not a cheque. Whether you’re eyeing your first piece or adding to your walls, remember every artwork has a story. The more you ask, the richer it gets. Here’s your collector’s checklist: 1. Provenance - Trace its past. Whose walls did it grace before yours? 2. Authenticity - Always look for the artist’s or estate’s seal. Certificates matter. 3. Condition - Ask about its journey. 4. ⁠Restorations are fine - silence isn’t. 5. Exhibitions & Publications - Has it traveled? Every showing adds to its legacy. 6. Medium & Care - Canvas, metal, paper each demands its own kind of respect. 7. Gallery Relationship - Work with those who guide, not just sell. Trust builds timeless collections. Use this as your guide while exploring ART MUMBAI this year where every booth, every conversation could lead you to your next story worth collecting.
