Inside Spaces

Caring for a collection with Spaces

See all of it in the demo.

  1. Registration

    A complete record for every work

    Inventory number, artist, medium, dimensions, acquisition, credit line and provenance. Appraisals, restorations and movements stay on the same record, which locks so two people can’t edit it at once. When you’re ready, publish the collection online, in multiple languages, from the same record.

  2. Conservation

    Condition reports, marked on the image

    Mark each observation with a numbered pin on the work’s image, add a close-up photo and set the overall condition. Every report is saved to the work’s record.

  3. Locations

    Every work in its place

    Walk through storage and the galleries with a phone, scan the labels and check them against the records: found, in another location or missing. With several collections or sites, every transfer is documented from request to arrival.

  4. Loans

    Works that travel, fully documented

    Every loan from request to return: venue and dates, nail-to-nail insurance, the courier, display conditions and each work’s insured value. Spaces shows what is still missing, from the signed agreement to the insurance certificate, and each loan goes into the work’s exhibition history.

  5. Private collections

    Your private collection, at hand

    Each work with its appraisal, where it hangs in each home and its documents: invoices, certificates and appraisals. For your insurer, your family and you.
