LEADING ART ADVISORY ANNOUNCES REBRAND
Los Angeles, CA, October 7th, 2020 — Kevin Barry Fine Art (KBFA), an award-winning art consultancy firm, announced today that it has completed a major rebrand. To celebrate and honor their growth over the past 25 years, the company is reintroducing itself as Kevin Barry Art Advisory (KBAA).
“In 25 years, we have become more than a small business and more than a family business,” says Kevin Barry, Founder & CEO of KBAA, “As Kevin Barry Art Advisory, we embark on our next chapter with a renewed commitment to elevating everyday spaces through visual storytelling.”
Almost two years in the making, the decision to rebrand KBAA stemmed from a desire to visually demonstrate the company’s evolution. Achievable sophistication, attention to detail, and a distinct point of view are now clear elements of the KBAA brand at a glance. As the art advisory market continues to evolve and service a wide range of industries— from residential to healthcare, corporate to hospitality— this rebrand promises that Kevin Barry Art Advisory will continue to evolve with it.
Today’s unveiling showcases a collaboration with Los Angeles-based boutique branding agency, Ludlow Kingsley whose resume highlights include the naming and brand identity for Parachute Home and the rebrand of Downtown LA’s famed Grand Central Market. Together the two teams endeavored to visually translate the company’s mission: to enhance the human experience through original art thoughtfully placed in everyday spaces. “Working with the Ludlow Kingsley team, we felt were in the hands of a brand agency that really understood us as a company and individuals,” says KBAA Principal Jason Fiore, “They immersed themselves in the market and across verticals to understand how to help us better communicate with our audience; the results speak for themselves.”
In conjunction with their new brand identity, Kevin Barry Art Advisory is unveiling a new website, kevinbarry.com. The site design, also spearheaded by Ludlow Kingsley, creates a seamless visual experience across all touchpoints. The new website features a sleek design with a greater focus on the storytelling within a space that KBAA does through thoughtful art curation.
“We are thrilled to have a new brand identity that truly reflects who we are as a company,” says KBAA Principal Allison Barry, “We’re a family business that runs on creativity, collaboration and joy. Our long-term clients know this, and now future collaborators will experience it from their first impression.” KBAA Principal John Barry adds, “We do so much work for such a wide variety of clients. We needed a brand identity that showcases how we tell stories through art and speaks to all that we have to offer. I’m eager to put ourselves out into the world with a new look that says ‘we can do anything’.”
