About

I am a Dubai-based curator and art advisor, and the founder of Cultured Art Consulting. Over more than ten years I have worked with Christie's, Art Dubai and the State Tretyakov Gallery, and today I advise private and corporate collectors across the Middle East on acquisitions, collection strategy and collection management.

My curatorial work spans Modern and Contemporary Art, from a solo exhibition of Viktor Nikolaev in Moscow to group exhibitions in Dubai bringing together artists from more than a dozen countries.
