Through Dennis and his wonderfully uncomplicated and intuitive way of telling about art in general and individual works in particular, I have once again gained deeper access to the subject. Dennis and his performances always appear relaxed, authentic and honest without ulterior motives. Thank you for opening up a further access to the extensive cultural scene.
Dennis is a valued partner of arts because of his expertise and his manner. Personal contact and market knowledge are particularly important to me. Through his competent advice and his specialist lectures I was able to expand my knowledge of art and the possibility of investing. With him I bought works of art that put a smile on my face every morning. I am already looking forward to the next purchases at Dennis.
As a customer-oriented partner in the art trade, Dennis always has my artistic preferences in mind. Always up to date, Dennis reacts quickly to changes in the art market and makes buying recommendations for the benefit of the customer. The result is visible – both on the wall and in the return.
“Art is hip. Anyone who is at a dinner at the moment and cannot talk about art, has not been invited to Art Basel, is like not being intellectually from that time.”

Hey, I’m Dennis. I make sure that people have a return on investment with art.
For many years, art means to me passion, culture and investment class. I build a bridge for my clients between the financial world on the one hand and the art world on the other. In this way, I combine the many financial advantages with the pure joy of owning a work of art that can be enjoyed on a daily basis.
Collecting art is no longer a pursuit reserved for an aristocratic elite, but a passion that I make accessible to people from all backgrounds. Unlike other stores of value, art is capable of providing intense pleasure and aesthetic enrichment as well as the potential for significant return. After all, art is the oldest man-made material asset in the world, secures cultural values, preserves history and is even considered its own currency.
