Her studies in New York brought her to work as a curator of important galleries of that city, where she took to art and got to know the work process of an art gallery.
Today the gallery has a prestige which is backed by the artists that exhibit here and who have exhibited successfully, such as Anish Kapoor, Tony Cragg, Anself Kiefer, Yayol Kusama and over 50 more contemporary artists of international fame.
