The appointment of 30-year-old Diandra Donecker, who after working at Christie's and holding various positions in the international art trade and the Metropolitan Museum N.Y. has already been the highly successful head of our photography department at Grisebach for two years, is a clear signal for the future. Mrs Donecker has outstanding expertise in the field of art and the art trade and is held in high regard by colleagues, collectors and museum directors. Her appointment also takes account of an ever-growing younger clientele and emphasises our confidence in the next generation, both internally and externally.
Bernd Schultz: "Since its foundation in 1986, Grisebach has stood for a multi-layered view of tomorrow. Courage, creativity, competence and reliability form our basis here, all qualities that Mrs Donecker also possesses to an unusual degree. Villa Grisebach and all employees are therefore delighted and grateful that we have been able to recruit Mrs Donecker for this role. Her appointment as Managing Director and Partner - alongside Micaela Kapitzky - is therefore a groundbreaking decision for the future of our company."
