About the publication
A focused publication
for responsible collecting.
The Private Art Index exists to help private collectors make clearer decisions through original frameworks, transparent sourcing and accountable authorship.
Our purpose
Reference notes and checklists for provenance, condition, documentation and responsible collection records. The publication is intentionally narrow: it does not attempt to cover every art-world headline, publish unverified market gossip or manufacture an answer where evidence is incomplete.
Who publishes this site
The publication is led by Arushi Kapoor, Founder and CEO of The Agency Art House. It operates as an educational editorial property. The relationship is disclosed so readers can evaluate the perspective and any potential interests for themselves.
