Maria Korolevskaya
Maria is an art entrepreneur, collector and curator. She is a co-founder of The Art Partners, a collection management company which was created to fulfil the needs of emerging and established art collectors in 2015. A passion for art and a desire to spend more time with artists inspired Maria to establish an artist residency in Rapallo, Italy (Untapped Residency, 2017).
Maria has a degree in Art Criticism from the Moscow State University (MSU), as well as an MA in International Business from the European Business School in London (EBS). She has also studied Art Business and Art Marketing at the Sotheby's Institute of Art in London and New York, endorsing it with working experience at Christie’s in London. She has over 7 years of experience in curating private collections collections in Europe and the UK.
Maria supports a few art tech organisations, sits on the advisory board of CADAF, contemporary and digital art fair in NYC, and is actively engaged in promoting and supporting the development of Fair Art Fair, an innovative digital platform for artists, collectors and curators.
In September 2021, Maria started her independent research in Psychology of the Arts, Neuroaesthetics and Creativity at Goldsmiths University of London. It is the world’s first postgraduate course that scientifically studies aesthetics and creativity. Her research was in the intersection of Art, Tech and Science.
In 2022, Maria Korolevskaya became the only director and shareholder of The Art Partners.
