About
Momart provides premium fine art logistics, with a comprehensive range of services, including transport, storage, and installation. We are dedicated to protecting and preserving everything we handle. From delicate paintings to monumental sculptures, we have a world-class reputation for solving the most complex art transport and installation challenges.
Since 1972, we have been entrusted by some of the world’s most prestigious institutions, galleries, artists, and collectors to safeguard their invaluable artworks and objects. We take pride in providing the highest quality of service to our clients and are proud to have earned their trust over the years.
History
In the early seventies, artist Jim Moyes was employed by galleries in London’s west end and many emerging artists, for installation, art handling and transport services.
The client base quickly grew in recognition of the quality of service being offered and in September 1972, Momart began. The company continued to grow – handling artworks, providing specialist storage and transport – establishing a strong reputation with galleries, artists and major institutions.
The Momart Artist Christmas Card has become a tradition since its inception in 1984. It all started when artist Bruce McLean designed the first festive card for Momart, serving as a gift for friends, clients and collaborators.
Among the illustrious artists who have contributed their creative vision to these cards are notable figures like David Hockney, Paula Rego, Tracey Emin and Damien Hirst.
Royal Warrant
The Royal Warrant was granted to Momart by her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth in 1993, as a result of our work with the Royal Collection, one of the world’s largest and most widely distributed art collections. The prestigious award, which we hold to this day, recognises the highest quality of service and excellence.
