About 

 

 

WK ART offers a tailored service to build and manage your art collection by providing independent and expert advice throughout the entire buying or selling process. WK ART can provide access to artworks for both new and seasoned collectors through its knowledge of the international art scene and contacts at galleries in Canada and abroad.

 

The name WK ART stems from the Renaissance idea of a Wunderkammer or a cabinet of curiosities, which stored a collector’s most rare and beloved objects. WK ART strives to develop personalized collections reflective of a client’s needs and tastes.
