    The registry of artworks is an essential process for the proper functioning of the activities at the different areas of the gallery. This is the constant compilation of textual and visual information and its systematic arrangement. The main purpose of my area is to achieve efficient results in order to always have an answer to the questions: what do we have? where do we have it? and how do we have it? Therefore, the constant communication with our artists and the teamwork within the gallery are essential.I have among my duties the data entry and continuous updating of the artwork inventory (ArtBase); the creation of condition reports and installation manuals; document elaboration, customs processes and shipping logistics around exhibition loans to museums and galleries, consignments, international art fairs and collectors purchases.
