Use Kode's breadth to separate object types and evidence
Kode describes four neighbouring city-centre art museums and three composer homes, with paintings, works on paper, sculpture, installations, video, furniture, craft, design, instruments, photographs, and buildings in its care. It also distinguishes municipal gifts, foundations, and deposits. Those ownership and custody arrangements are institution-specific; a Bergen connection or resemblance to a collection work cannot establish provenance for a private offer.
Prepare an exact schedule with maker, title, date, medium, support, dimensions, packed dimensions, weight, components, marks, labels, edition, frame, glazing, condition, repairs, provenance, ownership, and exhibition history. For furniture, instruments, or multimedia, add assembly, rights, files, equipment, handling points, and environmental limits. Independent specialists should address attribution, authenticity, title, cultural-property, conservation, and valuation gaps before contracting or movement.
