Art assets do not exist in isolation.

 

Their meaning, ownership, and long-term value are shaped across markets, languages, institutions, families, and generations - moving between countries, legal systems, and cultural frameworks over decades. Their stewardship depends on collaboration among appraisers, attorneys, fiduciaries, accountants, wealth advisors, and cultural institutions working across disciplines and borders.

​

Juliette Yuan & Associates (JY&A) operates as a highly specialized boutique compliance practice. We provide institutional-grade, IRS & USPAP-compliant valuation reports, allowing for direct client engagement, responsive communication, and a level of flexibility often difficult to achieve within larger institutional environment. Built upon nearly three decades of experience across Beijing, Shanghai, Paris, and New York, the practice draws on firsthand engagement with commercial and non-profit art ecosystems in China, Europe, and the United States. This perspective informs a nuanced understanding of how artistic, cultural, institutional, and financial value is formed, interpreted, documented, transferred, and preserved over time.

​

Particular attention is given to internationally developed collections, multilingual documentation, inheritance and estate matters, cross-border ownership histories, and the practical realities surrounding privately held art assets in a global environment. The practice works with collectors, fiduciaries, legal professionals, foundations, museums, galleries, and advisors navigating complex art asset questions that require research-based judgment, cultural fluency, and a long-term stewardship perspective.

Services are available in English, French, and Mandarin Chinese.
