When Pictet move into their London headquarters over 3 floors of a newly built Norman Foster building, CAS was appointed to develop a museum quality collection. Working closely with the CEO who has an avid interest in contemporary art, our team has an ongoing role as their art advisor, articulating the collection themes and purchasing works over the past two years. We manage all aspects of the collection, including publication of a collection catalogue and guided tours for staff and clients.
The collection reflects the dynamism and energy of the place in which we find ourselves, including the urban versus the rural, environmental issues, and within this the need for contemplative, meditative space. The works acquired or commissioned reflect and complement the strong minimal aesthetic established by the Norman Foster building.
