The auction platform for artists, arts organisations and charities. The Auction Collective was established by former Christie's auctioneer and Contemporary Art Specialist Tom Best. Tom spent six years at Christie’s London as an auctioneer, and two years in international development before combining these twin passions for art and social good in The Auction Collective. The Auction Collective was created to provide a fresh approach to the art and auction market. Tom's idea was to take the best of Britain's auction tradition and bring it up to date by making it more streamlined, more transparent, more affordable and more accessible. In doing so he was able to open up the auction model and its advantages to a new community of artists and art lovers. The Auction Collective provides support in: • Auction planning expertise • Artwork gathering • Provision of auctioneers • Promotion & Marketing • Anti-money laundering and due diligence checks • Timed Auctions, Live Auctions, Live Streamed Auctions, Print Auctions and Buy Now Exhibitions • Monthly payment options • Collection and distribution of payments • Post-auction shipping logistics
