I really love working with young artists. During the lockdown I was shocked to learn that so many young artists were not able to get financial help. I founded a WhatsApp-group called „Support The Artists“ and invited friends, clients, collectors to join. Once a week I am introducing a new artist and his/her work and it works! I am selling art and am able to support artists.

I took it a step further and launched „curatedartists.de“ with my co-curators Benedikt Müller and Alexander Winokurow, a website where we introduce our personal choice of artists.Right now we are working on a concept for a special art fair for upcoming artists, which is supposed to start in 2021. Stay tuned for more information! So exciting!

I am proud to be a member of the worldwide leadership program of the BMW Foundation Herbert Quandt in Munich. It promotes responsible leadership and inspires leaders worldwide to work towards a peaceful, just and sustainable future inspired by the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations 2030 Agenda.

I am always excited to see what Ira Stehmann brings to the fair and I have to say my expectations were fulfilled, the photographs of Miho Kajioka and Albarrán Cabrera are exquisite!

Since my archaeology studies I am big time into classical Greek and Roman antiquities. The famous Swiss dealer Jean-David Cahn brought a marvellous piece, the Greek marble „Head of an Idol“ (2600 BCE), which is of timeless beauty.

At Kunkel Fine Art I discovered this work by Robert Longo: „Study of Eagle Head“ (2016) in charcoal and ink on paper. Drawing is Longo’s primary medium. Over the past two decades, he has focused on charcoal, creating drawings that demonstrate an extraordinary level of technical virtuosity.

Ich wurde mit einer Arbeit über Caravaggio promoviert – daher ist und bleibt der römische Barock eine meiner Lieblingsepochen. Das außergewöhnlich beglückende am Beruf einer Kunsthistorikerin ist aber ja, dass Kunst uns ein „Bild“ jeweder Epoche bietet, respektive deren unzählige, und dass alle Explikationen miteinader verwoben sind – es gibt kein „Heute“ ohne das „Davor“, und dieses Wissen um das Gewesene macht auch die Bewunderung des Contemporary um so nachhaltiger.

Lego ergo sum: Whenever my time allows, I read and find it very satisfying to feel connected with the creators of literature over the centuries. Moreover, I love to move in nature, I cycle daily to each of my appointments in Munich, in the evenings I walk along the Isar river and on weekends I go swimming in summer and climb the mountains during the other seasons!

Das einzigartige an der Highlights Kunstmesse ist ja nicht nur deren Standort in einem der schönsten Bauten Münchnes, der Residenz, sondern auch, dass sie eine Offerte künstlerischer Schöpfungen bietet, die nicht nur quer durch die Jahrhunderte, sondern auch quer durch Genres und künstlerische Techniken geht: Das Wandeln durch die Messe gleicht daher einem Kunstspaziergang durch Säkula exquisitesten Schaffens in den Bereichen Malerei, Skulptur, Graphik, Fotografie, Möbeln, Schmuck, Silber und Porzellan.

It’s a difficult choice! But outside of the 20th century one of my favorite epochs is the Renaissance in Europe.

I love literature, especially from the19th and 20th century, walking in nature, and going to the theatre.

I like this format very much: high quality art works presented in a beautiful space in the heart of the city!

Johann Gregor Höroldt: Bourdalou. – It is so crazy and luxurious.

Ferdinand von Reznicek: Pierrot. – He is so charming and dreamy.
