      Former Manager

      Since 2013, I have been involved in the management of a small, prestigious art gallery in Johannesburg, promoting emerging South African artists. My involvement, preference for and knowledge of contemporary art imparted a fresh dimension to the gallery’s existing fine art portfolio. With a natural curatorial ability I can provide a sound framework on which artist’s work can be showcased and appreciated.
