Dr. Nathalie Groenewegen

[Englische Seite]

Studied art history and comparative literature at the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main. Received the scholarship during her doctoral studies and was thus a member of the graduate program of the Art History Institute of the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University.

Her love for fine arts was influenced by her grandmother from the Netherlands, who owned an antiques/ and art trade in The Hague. Antiques and arts and crafts from the 18th century to the beginning of the 20th century were naturally part of her everyday life or furnishings. Thus, her initial focus was predominantly on arts and crafts until the early 1920s. Through her studies of art history, but above all through her many years as curator of the art collection of DWS Investment GmbH (Deutsche Bank subsidiary) and the regular exhibitions associated with it, she became intensively involved with more recent and contemporary art. She passed on her many years of experience on the art market and in the art trade/auction house to young students for a time as a guest lecturer at the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University.
Specializing in the arts and crafts of the 18th and 19th centuries to the beginning of the 20th century, as well as in the art (painting/drawing/sculpture) of the 20th century and the present.
