Richard Associates Art Appraisals specializes in Contemporary Painting appraisals as well as paintings from the late Modern period, from the early 20th century to current artworks of today. Valuations are based on numerous factors that need to be analyzed during the appraisal process. The artist, medium, period, style and provenance are just a few things to be considered. Late Modern & Contemporary paintings, by both well-known and unknown artists, can be highly sought by collectors. Many movements rose out of these periods including Cubism, Dada, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism, Pop Art and Minimalism. Artwork of the Southwest, created by artists in groups such as the Taos Society of Artists, Los Cinco Pintores, the Taos Moderns and the Transcendental Painting Group have strong collector interest.
Contemporary Painting appraisals are needed for a variety of reasons such as insurance, equitable distribution, charitable contributions, estate planning and capital gains. It is also important for collectors of artworks to document their collection and to establish that the valuations are current. A qualified appraisal by a credentialed art appraiser can accomplish these tasks. Richard Associates can guide you through the contemporary painting appraisal process.

“I very much enjoyed working with you Aarin and would highly recommend your company to anyone needing an appraisal. Your patience and professionalism helped guide me through the appraisal process so I could finally get a family painting appraised for estate purposes. I especially appreciated you working with me through emails, since I live in California but preferred an appraiser from Santa Fe, where the artist originally worked.” – GJ, Berkeley, CA
