Daniel Turriani, Founder

Daniel’s lifelong passion for the arts is the result of growing up in a family of artists. His grandfather was an amateur painter who operated a succesful hotel on the Tuscany coast. There he met and developed friendship with many Italian artists including Giorgio De Chirico, Marino Marini, Renato Guttuso, Lucio Fontana and Mino Maccari. Young Daniel grew up in a home surrounded by the works of these masters. His mother, an interior designer further imparted their importance to him. His father was an orchestra conductor who went on to found and direct Milano Classica which produces classical music concerts.

After receiving his degree in Art History in 1996, Daniel worked in public relations for his father’s company. The job brought him into contact with several art collectors, reinforcing his future direction. In 1998 he moved to London and soon after in 1999 launched a career as a private art dealer. To this days Daniel runs a succesful art advisory company, advising and sourcing important artworks for his international clients, He travels extensively around the world and he’s collecting contemporary art and antiques.
