Mark Arts Inc.

“In conformity with the practice followed by many art galleries, art objects purchased and donated are not capitalized in the accounting records or included in the statement of financial position. Purchases of collection items reduce net assets in the period when purchased. Proceeds from sales or insurance recoveries are recorded as increases in net assets when received. Mark arts has a significant collection consisting of large european paints; american artists and artisans complete the collection with pieces of decorative art purchased at the biannual wichita national show. Mark arts follows an accessioning system prescribed by the american museum association to account for the collection. Mark arts emloys a curator to ensure that the collection is protected and preserved.”

“The collection consists of american and european paintings and decorative art by american artists. This furthers mark arts's purpose to improve understanding of visual arts and expand aesthetic appreciation.”
