HIZKIA
HIZKIA is a global provider of fine art logistics, transport, and collection management services. When it comes to art, seeing is believing. You can think you’ve seen a painting after looking at a photo in a book, but there is no comparison to standing in front of that same painting and seeing the artist’s brush strokes on the canvas. Art strengthens the mind: it inspires, intrigues, and connects us to new cultures, practices, and ideas. At HIZKIA, we believe this should be a universal experience, and aim to use our expertise to make art accessible to everyone, everywhere. Operating from offices throughout Europe, we aim to facilitate this by offering museums, galleries, auction houses and individual collectors a wide range of specialist services. This includes art handling, transport, installation, project management and coordination, storage, and collection care management. We stand for delivering the highest quality when it comes to managing and preserving our shared cultural heritage. This common ambition is reinforced by the diversity of our ten offices, each with their own areas of expertise, expanding our collective knowledge base. You can find us in Amsterdam (NL), The Hague (NL), Willebroek (BE), Liège (BE), Paris (FR), Copenhagen (DK), Stockholm (SE), Cologne (DE), Berlin (DE), and Munich (DE).
