Testimonials

“Courtney is a consummate professional with an impeccable reputation in the field. I have worked with her in a variety of capacities for the better part of two decades and I have always been able to rely on her to be on top of every last detail, freeing me up to turn my focus to other aspects of my work. The confidence in being able to rely on Courtney has been an invaluable asset in my projects and I jump at the chance to involve her in any aspect of exhibition production I am involved with. In my 28 years in the art business, there are few that I feel rise to the level of her attention to detail.”

“Courtney assisted our nonprofit visual arts organization with coordinating national and international shipping for several loaned works included in a group exhibition in Denver, Colorado. From start to finish, she was extremely diligent in obtaining shipping estimates from reputable art handlers while staying within our budget. Her communication skills are stellar—she was highly responsive and timely in all correspondence and oversaw all inbound and outbound shipping arrangements with utmost professionalism. It was an absolute pleasure working with Courtney!”

“After my mother left me with her sizable collection of World Art in our family home, I was at a loss how to manage the collection and distribute over 250 museum quality objects to various auction houses, museums, collectors and charitable organizations.  We knew that disposition of the collection was going to be an overwhelming task, especially because we lived across the country.  We were introduced to Courtney through a friend who recommended that we retain a credentialed registrar.  At the first visit Courtney discerned the gravity, scope and depth of our project.  With the highest degree of professionalism and registrarial acumen, Courtney worked with us through each phase of the project, applying her professional knowledge and skillfully adjusting her attention to detail to meet the needs of each situation, planned and unplanned.  It was a great relief and comfort to work with Courtney as she effectively interacted with auction houses and found suitable charities for disposition of the collection.  Courtney’s skills in sensitively managing the inventory, finding suitable venues and scheduling and arranging for professional distribution of the collection were impeccable.  At the end of the collections management process we needed to empty the house to prepare it for sale.  Courtney gracefully and competently handled every task in a timely manner, from packing and shipping works of art, to boxing the last remnants of the collection for donation, while keeping us on time and on budget.  She is highly reliable, resourceful and has great communication skills across a broad spectrum of interactions.  We highly recommend Courtney. “

“Courtney Brown arranged for the transport of over 300 Warhol works to 50+ national and international lenders. This shipping job required a high level of attention to detail given the high value works involved. Courtney handled the process professionally from start to finish, saving myself and the museum team plenty of time to focus on the deinstallation of the artworks and construction for our next exhibition. Can’t wait to have her help again in the very near future!”
