Our Mission:
We believe in the power of art to transform environments. Strong images, and images in dialogue, have a huge impact on the energy and soul of a space. We’ve experienced how building a visual narrative adds a layer of engagement - inspiring creativity, innovation and motivation amongst clients and employees. Our passion lies in discovering and nurturing un- and under-represented artists from around the world. We’ve built a vibrant global community, creating opportunities for emerging image makers to showcase their work in spaces that matter.
Our Story:
Der Greif, renowned for its innovative approach to curating contemporary photography, joined forces with long-time friend and collaborator Diana Poole to build a business dedicated to benefitting both emerging artists and partners. Diana’s expertise in the art world, combined with Der Greif’s global network of artists, allows us to create meaningful, visual experiences that elevate interiors while supporting the careers of up-and-coming creators. Together, we are passionate about bringing these unique voices into the spaces that shape our daily lives – whether that’s a hotel lobby, workspace or cultural venue.
What We Do:
We specialize in curating and implementing photo and video art. We're able to deliver creative concepts and artwork proposals to our partners quickly and efficiently through advanced tech processes. Whether you seek dynamic installations by artists from across the globe or prefer focusing on local artists to create valuable community engagement, our goal is to craft visual stories that enrich a space and contribute to its aesthetic, cultural and social value.
Our Approach:
- Tailored Installations – From framed photographs to immersive video art projections, our installations fit seamlessly into your space.
