SERVICES
Our services take care of the myriad details involved in the development, organization, planning, marketing, and management of traveling museum exhibition tours. Our offices become the center for all business and communications related to each exhibition. 

STRATEGIC PLANNING
Special arrangements are tailored to the specific goals, objectives, conditions and requirements of each exhibition. We consult with clients to develop an overall strategy and a marketing program designed to maximize the potential for results. 

MUSEUM NETWORK
LTE utilizes its worldwide network of museums, professional contacts and arts resources to promote our clients’ exhibitions to both a national and international audience.  We maintain an extensive, customized, up-to-date database of museums and museum personnel developed over the past 25 years. This enables us to offer our clients access to the best and most appropriate institutions and decision makers in the museum world. 

FEES & INCOME
LTE's fees are determined according to the extent of services required, and by the economic potential of each exhibition. Certain fees are charged for exhibition organization, tour organization, development and marketing services, and other fees are charged for the management and administration of the exhibition tour, plus expenses. Exhibition Loan Fees paid by museums are shared between LTE and clients depending on the specific economic parameters of each situation. Please contact us for details.

Landau Traveling Exhibitions has presented more than 500 exhibitions at museums and universities throughout the United States, Canada and the world over the past 40 years. 

The Landau family has been active in the international art world for almost 50 years. During the 1950's & 60's, the highly acclaimed Felix Landau Gallery in Los Angeles and Landau/Alan Gallery in New York, introduced, represented and exhibited the best of the 20th Century's American, European and International Modern Master and Contemporary artists. 

In 1967 Mitzi Landau took on the task of circulating the GASTON LACHAISE: Sculpture and Drawings exhibition for the Lachaise Foundation (it has now been to over 130 museums) and Landau Traveling Exhibitions was launched. 

Jeffrey Landau joined the business in 1989 as Managing Director and is now also in charge of the new arts communications division, Art Resource Technologies, taking Landau into the 21st Century. 

We continue to represent exhibitions, collections, 20th Century masterworks, contemporary artists, estates, arts organizations, corporations and foundations.
