The Devoted Classicist: The Private Collection of a New York Antiquarian by Christies spanning ancient Greek, Roman, Byzantine and Egyptian cultures, illustrated the vision of a connoisseur fascinated by antiquity, the Grand Tour, and the history of collecting.

CELEBRATING 50 YEARS
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of world heritage, Global Art Curator & Visionary Marcus Schaefer brought to life a ground breaking concept to exhibit Art, with celebrated artist Sacha Jafri, at UNESCO Paris HQ. Jafri's exhibition of World Heritage Sites, at the UNESCO HQ Great Hall was displayed as sculptural artworks suspended from the ceiling, with the fuselage from the outer skin of a decommissioned Airbus A320-211 as his canvas; part of an upcycling initiative, aligning with Schaefer's aim to exhibit art outside of the confines of the traditional Gallery Space.
