Forbes Lists Top Corporate Art Collections
- August 02, 2012 23:38
Corporate collections with the aim to improve lives and educate---those shared with the public and not stored in vaults---find their way onto Forbes' ranking of art assembled by businesses.
Among the best are Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase, UBS, Progressive, and Deutsche Bank.
High profile, expensive sales are not usually the aim. Emerging and mid-career artists have been the focus of UBS, for one. Others grew from corporate mergers, including J.P. Morgan Chase which began with Rockefeller to a 30,000-work collection featuring major modern artists from Sol LeWitt to Andy Warhol.
