From art sources to cultural assets
EURAN Art Acquisition & Deployment is a permanent operation for identifying, selecting, acquiring and deploying art across private, corporate, hospitality, real-estate, architectural, institutional and cultural environments.
It functions as a continuous cultural acquisition system, not as a seasonal fair visit or occasional gallery tour. It operates through EURAN’s COS™ logic.
Specific art fairs, such as Art Basel Basel 2026, may become urgent activations inside this permanent system. The system itself remains active year‑round.
Decades of practice, now an official service
We have been active for decades in art identification, artist discovery, acquisition guidance, commissions, production and cultural advisory missions across private, corporate, institutional, maritime, hospitality and architectural contexts.
The change in 2026 is structural: this long-standing practice is now formalized as an official EURAN operation, with named activations, professional rules, fees and mandate discipline.
Service Levels
Remote Strategic Activation — €25,000
Year-round remote curatorial intelligence, sourcing from galleries, fairs, studios and private sources worldwide. Ideal for most clients who prefer to operate without travel.
In-Situ Strategic Activation — €35,000
Physical on-site presence and executive representation at major events or locations (Art Basel Basel 2026 is the current opportunity).
Important
- The activation fee secures dedicated focus and resources.
- All acquisitions require your explicit written approval.
- Galleries invoice you directly where possible.
- Plus 15% success commission / origination fee on artwork purchase value or other economic value generated from the activated engagement,
according to written agreement.

EURAN Ambassadors: on the water, on land, in the sky
EURAN Ambassadors are partner properties that participate in EURAN operations and become cultural presences.
The concept includes vessels, hotels, headquarters, real-estate projects, residences, airports, aircraft, marinas, cultural venues, clubs and industrial sites.
Shipping Embassies are one maritime application. The Ambassador framework is universal.
Professional Meeting Activation
EURAN may offer a short introductory exchange to determine whether a serious mandate may exist. Any meeting requiring preparation, strategic discussion, project review, cultural orientation, cooperation planning, travel, executive coordination or written follow-up is activated through a Professional Meeting Activation Fee agreed in advance.
If a service mandate is subsequently activated within the agreed period, the fee may be deducted from the first EURAN invoice.
