THE VALUE OF DISCERNMENT
September 2022

“I believe that collecting is the representation of oneself through the selection of works. Each collection is therefore the narration of one's own story.

Those who choose to build a collection so that it remains forever offer a reflection on the continuation of their own being through its planning and development. Only in this way do great collections spread and proliferate, thus becoming accessible. Otherwise, to collect would be limited to the representation of the ego.

My role within this circuit, between the market and collecting, is to defend quality so that the selection is not ephemeral and so that the work is called upon to reach a timeless value".
