Alla base della raccolta della mia famiglia vi è un'idea di equilibrio e di armonia. Perché abbiamo cercato, desiderato, collezionato queste opere? Per raccontare una storia, una storia che rivela il gusto e l'amore di una famiglia. Mio zio ha vissuto le opere della nostra collezione come un rifugio, un luogo dell'anima, l'arte come desiderio, come anelito, e la pratica del collezionismo come un viaggio appassionante.

The idea of balance and harmony represents the foundation of my family's collection. Why have we pursued, desired, and collected these artworks? To tell a story - a story revealing the taste and love of a family. For my uncle, the works in our collection represented a shelter, a place for the soul; he experienced the art as a dream, as a yearning, and his collecting practice like a breath-taking journey.
