Since then, corporate art collections have grown into a platform that many companies use for a multitude of corporate objectives: investing in art can help a company with shaping and increasing its brand image, to increase its employees’ morale and productivity, to create a culture of creativity and innovation within the company and to communicate the company’s values and beliefs.
Some businesses prefer to invest in art by local artists, in order to reinforce their connection with the local community and highlighting their commitment to social responsibility – providing support for living artists. Art also provides networking and publicity opportunities, often as part of companies’ public relations strategy, creating experiences that connect with the public at the deeper level.
