A Bit About Us

With two decades in the art world, we work closely with collectors, families, galleries, auction houses, and institutions to identify, acquire, and care for exceptional works. Based in London, our practice bridges the art worlds of Eastern Europe and the international market, drawing on relationships built across private collections and institutions throughout Europe. Our work is guided by a belief that the right artwork is not simply acquired, but understood within the history, context, and future of a collection.

We also develop exhibitions and projects that bring artists from Eastern Europe into new contexts and audiences, working with galleries and partners across Europe to expand their visibility and create meaningful connections between an artist’s history and contemporary relevance.

Outside of his advisory practice, David works with Stephenson art on the strategic development of artist estates, including the estate of Alexander Archipenko and the estate of Daniela Vinopalova. His work spans estate strategy, curatorial development, exhibitions, and sales, supporting the long-term development and international visibility of the artists and their estates.

Every engagement starts the same way: understanding what a collection, an artist, or an estate is really for, before deciding what should happen next. We believe the best work is built patiently, through knowledge, trust, and conviction, with an eye for what will matter in ten years, not ten weeks.
