(Profile only availible in german - translated by machine)
"Collecting is a creative act, a way of self-knowledge and an opportunity to share in the passions of another.
A collector makes his selection subjective, regardless of balance or obligations to the public. Selection criterion is not only the intellectual access to a specific art, but above all an emotional: to live the joy of this art. And yet: A collection is a collection without having a plan. Focusing on a style, a theme or even a special item is a personal summary, at the same time critical or affirmative commentary on trends in contemporary art.
Over time and under the influence of personal and social change, is changing a collection like a living organism. Today, there are thematic in particular images of people in its temporality and fragility, which form the focus of my collection. "
