Dittrich & Schlechtriem

DITTRICH & SCHLECHTRIEM is a partnership between the entrepreneur Lars Dittrich, and gallerist André Schlechtriem, the former curator of the Judith Rothschild Foundation Contemporary Drawing Collection in New York, which then became part of MOMA NY’s permanent collection. The gallery presents up to eight exhibitions per year and promotes manifold publications for each exhibition that include contributions from renowned writers, introducing the work of international emerging and mid-career artists while participating regularly in international art fairs. The ability of DITTRICH & SCHLECHTRIEM to identify and cultivate the potential of young auspicious artists goes along with successfully setting up links to internationally established and aspiring collectors. It is one of the prime intents of the gallery to build substantial relationships that support, protect and enhance the artist’s presence and involvement in leading discourses and discussions on contemporary art. In addition to bringing new active clients to the emerging contemporary market within the last five years numerous works are placed within significant German and international collections. DITTRICH & SCHLECHTRIEM regularly engages with institutional and curatorial projects, enhancing the profile of the artists and creating opportunity for artistic development.
