Become a Collector
expects. And a few things they don't.
Every work in the collection is there because it belongs. Not because it fills a wall. Marcolina curates with the seriousness of a collector herself.
Original art at serious prices should not require a single lump sum. Payment plans are available on all original works. Ask Marcolina about the options for any specific piece.
Every work ships worldwide with full insurance and professional art packaging. Collectors in New York, Los Angeles, London, and beyond have acquired through Marcolina's without visiting in person.
Every original work comes with a Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artist, full provenance documentation, and care instructions. No exceptions.
Marcolina works with collectors personally — in your home, in your office, or on a dedicated video call. The consultation is about finding the right work, not making a sale.
Collectors who acquire through Marcolina's join a community with ongoing access to the artists, their process, and future work. Guillo Pérez 3's participation is reserved and meaningful.

Ask Marcolina →is the most important one.
The collectors who build the most meaningful collections almost always started the same way: they found a work that would not leave them alone. They kept thinking about it after they left the room. They came back to look again. Eventually they decided that living with it was worth more than the money it cost.
Marcolina works with first-time collectors with the same attention she brings to established ones. There is no minimum. There is no pressure. The first conversation is always about what you are looking for, not what we are trying to sell.
