I have an extensive and practical theoretical understanding of British and international art markets and a keen interest in art scenes of emerging markets.

My research is based on cross-disciplinarity, collaboration, and sharing. I consider all areas of my professional engagement as part of my research process, being this professional work, journalistic activities, teaching as well as academic research. All these areas influence my research interests, activities, and outputs. My research is predominantly concerned with contemporary art markets and globalisation. I have published on the role of art academies within globalisation, and am preparing a number of journal articles around the role of the artist within the market. I have presented research on Frieze Art Fair as a platform for change in agency for the artist at the TIAMSA Art Fair Conference in London in July 2017 (proceedings forthcoming). I am furthermore interested in the art school as institution, globalisation and power and sustainability in the art world.
I write and publish in German and English.
