A selection of our artists

More than 20 years ago we were searching for our artists. Today, we are found and have become very selective in making choices, because consistency and fostering the development of our artists are our concern.

Many of these artists have grown together with us and have been faithful for decades.
We are working together with more than 25 artists from 8 countries. Our focus lies on international, representational, figurative contemporary art.
