As curator and advisor, she passionately believes that art transcends being a mere object; rather, it's an environment in itself, creating powerful narratives. Von Heuer channels this belief into the various projects curating collections for private clients and public establishments — as well as collaborating with foundations such as The Venice Biennale / Foundazione Georgio Cini, Le Bon Marche and Sexy Beast LA. Her approach is intuitive and informative, sourcing bespoke options in response to her client’s requirements. She works within her clients’ ethos to create valuable and dynamic collections and curates with the goal for creating cultural variety and giving a place for artists whose art speaks directly to the ecosystem in which she works, whether that space is a new hotel or a 100-year-old private garden.
