I accompany you in the creation of your collection. I share my experience and
knowledge
I analyze, assess and value the works of art or pieces of decorative art that arouse your curiosity and interest.
I go after and search for your interests in all the auctions, antique dealers and platforms in the world.
I share with you the art or objects that you choose to collect immobilized in the public collections of the world to add to your training.
“It is enough to observe a collector handling the objects in his display case,
seems to be a magician
can see beyond them,
to see its distance”
Walter Benjamin

“When I discover the object, I rescue it. It stops being a commodity
to become a cultural asset without monetary value
By rescuing, I rescue myself. I am a collector of myself.
