Description

The Consignment Agreement for Art in New York is a legal document outlining the terms between a Consignor, who owns the artwork, and a Consignee, who will sell the artwork on their behalf. Key features include the warranty of ownership by the Consignor, a detailed description of the property being consigned, and terms regarding exclusivity and pricing. It specifies payment timelines to the Consignor upon the sale of consigned items and includes provisions for terminating the agreement. The agreement also addresses liability for loss of property and whether the Consignee may use the Consignor's name in promotional materials. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants involved in art sales, providing a clear framework for their responsibilities and rights in consignment transactions. Users should fill in specific details such as property description, agreed percentages for payment, and timelines for remittances. The Consignment Agreement serves as both a protective measure for the Consignor and a guideline for the Consignee's operations.

Other Potential Consignment Percentages and Fees While 60/40 is a common consignment split, you may come across other arrangements - some that work in your favor and some that work against you. Some craft artists negotiate a 70/30 split (70% for the craft artist and 30% for the retailer).

Consignment Agreement. Consignment is a more accurate term than 'sale or return', because it makes dear to both sides that the artist does not intend to sell the works to the gallery at any stage, but merely intends to leave them for sale by the gallery as artist's agent or consignee on a commission basis.

To consign is to 'deliver something to someone'. In terms of art, it's when the owner of the artwork - the consigner - consigns (gives) their artwork to a gallery or auction house via a specialist, with the intention of putting the work up for sale.

What is artwork consignment, exactly? Put simply, it's the professional method for reselling art that involves a collector giving their work to resale art dealers or auction houses to sell on their behalf, with the ultimate objective of making a sale.

A good artist contract sets forth the deliverables for the project being completed. This usually includes all details regarding project timeframes, the type of work being completed, the number of revisions expected, and the delivery dates.
