Printz Fine Art Appraisals

Art Advisory

An appraiser is a professional with the expertise and credentials needed to evaluate property. Formally trained as a personal property appraiser, Bellamy Printz is an Associate Candidate of the Appraisers Association of America and is Uniform Standards in Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) compliant through July, 2023. As a separate entity, Printz Fine Art Appraisals provides appraisals for purposes of insurance, estate tax, charitable donation, equitable distribution, liquidation, purchase, and sale. Bellamy is available to conduct a preliminary review of items to assess pricing and scope of the appraisal needed at no charge.

Making the decision to include art in your environment can be both exciting and daunting. Working with an expert helps to create a focus and aesthetic, as well as providing you with a wealth of information and assistance to move forward as you create your collection. With over 13 years experience as a curator with a major institution, Bellamy Printz assisted in growing their collection from 2,500 to over 7,000 works of contemporary art, including site-specific commissions and curating exhibitions.

Establishing new public platforms related to art & culture has wide-ranging positive effects on communities and enriches one’s experience on many levels. Bellamy Printz designs programs (either singular or a series), residencies and events to spark ideas and communication about creativity and innovative thought. Since 1996, she has created various types of public programming throughout Cleveland, including at Zygote Press, Cleveland Clinic, and Cleveland Public Library.

Writing

Writing about art is often overwhelming and can seem overtly complicated. Whether the text is focused on your own art work or others’ for general purposes, a specific grant, project proposal or brochure, Deep Dive can help. By getting to the root of an idea via a meaningful exchange, the words can flow. Bellamy Printz is an experienced writer in several genres, including marketing, art writing, essays, and development writing. In addition to content development, she has overseen the publication and design of several books.

Understanding and establishing the parameters, players and scope to initiate and complete a specific art-related project requires someone with the ability to visualize the process before it even starts. Bellamy Printz has managed over 100 curatorial projects for a variety of spaces and purposes from architectural planning to art procurement to installation. In non-curatorial related projects, she recently directed the creation of an art & architecture app for Cleveland Clinic on iOS, and has managed many innovative projects at Cleveland Clinic and Zygote Press, including third-party collaborations.
