NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

TORONTO, Sept. 22, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- QuestCap Inc. ("QuestCap" or the "Company") (CSE:QSC; FRA:34C1) through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Collection Sites, LLC is working with Art Angels Gallery, Los Angeles, California to launch COVID-19 testing protocols to help safely return art exhibitions for artists and consumers. This event will feature world-renown artist Russell Young September 24th, 2020 in Beverly Hills, California.

The COVID-19 testing and operating protocols have been developed by medical experts and QuestCap advisors, Dr. Glenn Copeland and Dr. Lawrence Steinman, and will help ensure the safety of employees, artists, and viewers. The testing consist of both digital temperature checks and rapid serology tests using the LYHER Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) IgM/IgG Antibody tests. The other protocols include ensuring proper social distancing, managing attendee numbers, and proper recording and reporting for contact tracing purposes.

"The standards for screening, testing and data keeping gives rise to both self-governance and professional empowerment so art professionals and their clients can re-engage in normal business activity which is critical in preserving and protecting the industry, market values, and activity," says Dr. Glenn Copeland CEO of Glenco Medical Inc., a partially owned subsidiary of QuestCap.

According to the John Hopkins University of Medicine and their Coronavirus resource center, there are now over 6.7 million confirmed cases in the United States, with over 199,000 deaths to date. There are over 785,000 confirmed cases in the state of California with over 259,817 of those cases in the City of Los Angeles alone. LA County has implemented strict COVID-19 restrictions including maximum attendee limits. Collection Sites will be following all government-imposed restrictions, where attendees can book their respective viewing slots online.

According to Bloomberg⁽¹⁾, the U.S. Arts industry contribute more than $800 billion a year to the U.S. economic output, amounting to more than 4 percent (4%) of GDP ? and its facing a troubled future unless exhibitions, shows and galleries reopen in a safe, compliant and COVID-19-conscious manner.

"Art Angels will lead by example to restore reality responsibly for the art industry as more than 5 million Americans work in the arts-and-culture economy according to Bloomberg," says Art Angels co-founder and art curator Jacquelin Napal. "In 2016 the arts-and-culture employment generated nearly $400 billion in wages and this is at risk right now should new COVID-19 testing protocols and social distancing protocols not be adopted by our sector," says Mrs. Napal.

"We are committed to getting all industries back to providing value, serving customers and doing so within a safer realm of conduct and practice," stated Mr. Tim Shelburn, the CEO of Collection Sites, LLC. "The fine art, mixed art marketplace is the perfect industry for our Standards to be implemented given the multiple layers of service providers, and the number of interactions the traditional professional will have with clients," concludes Mr. Shelburn.
