T.E.D. Fine Art specialise in the design and construction of custom-made crating solutions, for any type of artwork, however large or small. Our range extends from value for money, one-way crates to the highest museum bespoke specification.
As part of the larger IAS Fine Art Logistics Group, T.E.D. are able to offer a complete end to end solution, by being able to provide domestic and international transportation, along with museum quality, climate and non-climate-controlled art storage.
Installation
If you have recently purchased an artwork and need it displayed in your home or office, our T.E.D. technicians are able to consult, design and supply custom made object mounts, supports and plinths. Our installers are skilled and experienced in the installation of two-dimensional works right through to large sculptures and public art projects.
Additional Storage Space
If you are looking for additional space to safely and securely store your artworks or have a requirement under FBT legislation, IAS offers museum quality storage facilities in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Brisbane and Perth.
Moving Artworks around Australia or around the Globe
As part of the larger IAS Fine Art Logistics Group, T.E.D. are able to deliver your artworks to all parts of Australia, using our own fleet of company owned vehicles and trained staff. We service 100% of Australia geographically, via our domestic art shuttle network, which links Brisbane, Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne, Hobart, Adelaide, Darwin, North Queensland and Perth. These services operate on fixed schedules and are a cost-effective option to move single works of art and small exhibitions, between the major metropolitan cities and regional centres.
Our International Team assists you with all import and export documentation and provides advice on custom duties and taxes, when arranging the transportation of your artworks in and out of Australia from all continents of the world.
We have developed long standing relationships with trusted partners around the world who, combined with the in depth knowledge of our International Team, provide us with the experience and local knowledge to ensure your artworks arrive when and where they are intended, and at the most competitive rates possible.
Collection Management
As your artwork collection evolves it is important to have a safe, secure and dependable system to manage all important aspects of your collection. Our in-house Art Information Management System (AIMS), has been purposely developed with this in mind.
Our registrars are available to meet with you to identify your needs and tailor a collections management solution, whether it be:
Asset Management
Catalogue the unique characteristics for each of your artwork pieces such as the name of the artist, title, dimension accession code, and an image.
Each artwork will have its own identification label including a barcode, meaning that at any given time the actual location of every piece your artwork collection, is clearly identified.
Valuation
Having current valuations, enables you to ensure that your asset register and insurance policies are maintained to reflect the current market values.
Rotation of collection
To optimise the enjoyment of each piece of your artwork, whilst delivering a fresh visual effect, we are able to coordinate a scheduled rotation of your collection.
Framing or Reframing
To refresh the look of your artwork, we are able to arrange for the reframing of an existing piece of artwork or framing a new acquisition.
Conservation
We enjoy long standing relationships with Australia’s leading art conservation companies and are able to coordinate conservation works to suit your requirements.
Art Consultancy
If you require educated advice on developing an artwork collection, appraising an existing collection, a new acquisition or the commissioning of a specific piece, we can connect you with Australia’s leading art consultants.
