FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My rate is $45/hr with a $250 minimum payment. Additionally, I am a one man operation so any projects that require two or more people are not suitable for me.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I graduated from NYU with a BFA in Photography and Art History. Subsequently, I worked with various artists before pivoting into art handling. I have worked across the spectrum of the profession from trucking companies (such as Air Sea Packing, Propack, Artex, Crozier and Acumen) to galleries (such as Albertz Benda, Ghebaly, Jeffrey Deitch and The Pit) to private clients. With almost a decade of experience, I am well rounded and knowledgable art handler capable of taking on any project.
- What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
1) The quantity of art objects that need to be hung or placed for display. 2) The project timeline and the desired day/dates for the project. 3) The specifics of the desired location for the objects (although this often changes and I can aid in the curation if needed). This will also help to determine if additional equipment is needed such as a ladder. 4) The current location and condition (i.e. packaging, cleanliness, etc.) of the objects. This will help to determine additional labor time as well as how the art will get from A to B (especially important if the objects are heavy or very fragile or if the means of access are cumbersome).
