The foundation

Stichting Foundation for Safe Art Registration (FSAR) aims to serve as an international platform where initiatives in the area of art provenance registration are encouraged, promoted and critically examined.

Currently the foundation is registered as "Stichting Waarborg Kunstregistratie". The statutes are being altered.

The articles defines the aim of the foundation as follows. To:

(a) act as a platform for stakeholders, professional groups, government agencies, knowledge organizations, and museums involved in art registration.

(b) to promote and ensure an independent and secure way of registering art and/or objects of applied arts, in which identification, origin, and confidentiality are independently ensured within a legal framework, regardless of the use of IT technical possibilities.

(c) to develop, or cooperate with parties involved in, relevant (technical) systems and documentation for art registration.

(d) to represent the interests of parties involved in art registration.

(e) to promote uniformity in international art registration

and anything directly or indirectly related to this or conducive to this, in the broadest sense of the word. The foundation has no profit motive.
