They say that the Venice Biennale often acts as a mirror of our time. Not because artists predict the future, but because they put into visual form what society is feeling and thinking before the rest of us have fully realised it.  

In recent years, contemporary art has been dominated by technology...

Buongiorno!

Fresh back from Venice, I wanted to share a few impressions from the extraordinary pre-opening days of the Venice Biennale — that one moment every two years when the entire art world seems to gather in one floating city. 🛶

Artists, curators, collectors, museum directors, cultural...

As the new year unfolds, I’ve been thinking about how the echoes of 2025 still linger. After all it was a year that reshaped the art world with record-breaking sales, long-awaited openings, and stories that truly shook the world.

Today I would like to invite you to revisit the defining moments wort...

Whether it’s your very first piece or your fiftieth, buying art always carries a little thrill — and a little uncertainty. That moment of wondering:

Have you ever stayed somewhere — a holiday rental, a boutique hotel, or a friend’s home — and felt instantly at ease?

Not just because it was beautiful, but because it felt considered. Like someone had cared about what the place says, not just how it looks.

More and more, it’s this sense of ...

“I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.”
– Michelangelo Buonarroti

Michelangelo was just 26 years old when David was completed in 1504. The sculpture was installed in the heart of Florence – a symbol of human strength, courage, and freedom. Crowds gathered to witness how ...

What actually determines how much a work of art is worth?
