October has a way of celebrating the oddities. Perhaps it’s the falling leaves, the changing weather, or the shorter days and longer nights that spark our fascination with the unusual. Halloween is the perfect season to explore the Curiosity of Collecting and the extraordinary objects, peculiar specimens, and mysterious treasures that have captivated collectors for centuries.

Here are some highlights from our latest blog that can be read here: https://artperitus.com/curiosity-of-collecting/

Falling for Art-
Few artists captured the splendor of an American autumn quite like Jasper Francis Cropsey, whose luminous landscapes celebrate the brilliant colors and quiet grandeur of nature. As a leading figure of the Hudson River School, Cropsey embraced a tradition that viewed the American landscape as a source of beauty, inspiration, and national pride. His golden foliage, fiery maples, and expansive vistas remind us that nature itself can be a masterpiece—one that changes with every season.

Not Just Mrs. Jackson Po***ck...

“…it’s difficult for people to see me, or to speak to me, or observe my work, and not connect it with Po***ck. They cannot free themselves.” — Lee Krasner

For much of her career, Lee Krasner was viewed primarily through the lens of her marriage to Jackson Po***ck. But Krasner was an accomplished artist in her own right and had established her place in New York’s art scene well before she met Po***ck. By the time they married in 1945, Krasner had already developed an independent artistic identity and was deeply engaged with the emerging New York School. She consistently maintained that she and Po***ck were artistic equals, even as his reputation increasingly overshadowed her own.

The new exhibition The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Krasner and Po***ck: Past Continuous, offers an opportunity to reconsider their relationship and, importantly, to look more closely at Krasner’s work on its own terms. Rather than simply presenting her as Po***ck’s wife, the exhibition explores the artistic dialogue, shared influences, and distinct approaches that shaped both careers.

Currently on view at The Met until 31 Jan 2027

When Was Your Last Fine Art Appraisal?

Hurricane season is a good reminder to review your collection and your insurance coverage. Art values can change substantially over time. A work purchased several years ago may have a very different replacement value today.

We generally recommend reviewing and updating appraisals every 3–5 years, as well as after significant market changes, major acquisitions, or other circumstances that could affect value.

An up-to-date appraisal can help ensure that your insurance coverage reflects the current value of your collection. Reach out to Peritus to learn how we can help.

An Art Appraiser Can Do More Than Tell You What Your Art Is Worth.

It's Hurricane Season and when disaster strikes, knowing the value of a work of art is only one piece of the puzzle. A comprehensive art appraisal and collection management firm like Art Peritus can become an important resource before, during, and after a loss.

Preparation is an essential part of collection stewardship.

When disaster strikes, knowing the value of an artwork is only one piece of the puzzle. From pre-loss documentation and valuation to damage assessment, insurance claims, conservation, and restoration coordination, Art Peritus can help guide art collectors and insurance professionals through the process.

Is Your Art Collection Ready for Hurricane Season?

Hurricane season is a reminder that protecting your collection goes beyond having insurance. The right documentation can make all the difference when the unexpected happens.

Before a storm, consider:
- Is your fine art appraisal current?
- Is your collection inventory complete and accessible?
- Are recently acquired works documented and insured?
- Do you have photographs, provenance, and values for your pieces?
- Do you know who to call if a work is damaged?

At Art Peritus, we help collectors prepare through USPAP-compliant appraisals, collection management, documentation, and art crisis management. Preparation today can make the claims and recovery process significantly easier tomorrow and potentially mitigate loss of value.

September marks the beginning of Hurricane season—make sure that your valuable art collection and luxury assets are appraised and properly insured.

Document Your Collection
An illustrated inventory provides a detailed record of your collection, including photographs, descriptions, dimensions, provenance, and values. This documentation can be invaluable if an item is damaged, lost, or destroyed.

Confirm Current Values
Hurricane season is a good reminder to review your insurance coverage and make sure your fine art is adequately insured. Values can change significantly as the art market moves, and appraisals should generally be updated every 3–5 years or following significant market changes, acquisitions, or sales.

Prepare for a Claim
In the unfortunate event of damage, an independent appraisal can help establish the value of an item before the loss and assist with the insurance claims process. We can also help coordinate with insurers, conservators, art handlers, and other specialists when appropriate.

Assess and Manage Damage
After a storm, we can assist in documenting damage and coordinating with qualified conservators and restoration professionals. Early documentation is particularly important when dealing with water, mold, or environmental damage.

Summer Art Escape: From Los Angeles to Palm Springs, California
Drive Time: Approximately 2 hours

Palm Springs has evolved into one of the country's premier destinations for lovers of modern art and architecture. Set against the dramatic backdrop of the San Jacinto Mountains, the city is renowned for its impeccably preserved Mid-Century Modern homes, many designed by icons including Richard Neutra, Albert Frey, and Donald Wexler.

Begin your visit at the Palm Springs Art Museum, where exhibitions range from contemporary art to Native American works and modern sculpture. Architecture enthusiasts can explore self-guided or docent-led tours showcasing some of the finest examples of desert modernism.

Nearby, the former Annenberg estate, Sunnylands, offers beautifully curated gardens, architecture, and art, while the internationally acclaimed Desert X exhibition transforms the surrounding desert into an open-air gallery with site-specific installations that respond to the landscape itself.
