Curatorial Approach

My curatorial practice is shaped by a global perspective, cultivated through decades of work across California, London, and international art markets. Drawing from academic studies at UCLA, Sotheby's Institute London, and most recently, contemporary Surrealism at the University of Barcelona, I bring scholarly depth to exhibition development while maintaining practical market awareness.

My multilingual capabilities enable nuanced cross-cultural dialogue, essential for today's interconnected art world. This international fluency, developed through years of work with diverse artists, institutions, and collectors across multiple continents, shapes my understanding of varied cultural contexts and artistic expressions. Combined with hands-on experience in gallery operations, museum programming, and international logistics, this global perspective allows me to bridge cultural narratives while executing technically precise exhibitions that resonate across borders.

From concept to installation, I emphasize both artistic excellence and operational efficiency, ensuring exhibitions resonate intellectually while meeting practical objectives. This balanced approach has proven successful across diverse venues, from established institutions to emerging cultural spaces.
