About

The LSESU Art Business Society, in collaboration with UAL Art Business, is honoured to host Alina Davey, Senior Director, International Business Development, PCG at Sotheby's at the London School of Economics. This event is open to the public. The event will take place on Tuesday 30th of January at 17:30 in the Chen Kin Ku Building, CKK.1.04 (video of instructions of how to get there will be available on the day on our Instagram Story). Alina Davey will discuss careers in the art world and discuss the global life of private museums - her passion lies in advancing research within private museums and exploring opportunities for art collectors to establish their own private art institutions. Alina Davey joined Sotheby’s Russian Department in 2004, where she worked for three years. Since 2007, Davey has been a key member of the Sotheby’s London Private Client Group, advising private and corporate art collections in art acquisitions. She has also driven a number of major client and strategic initiatives, strengthening the firm’s relationships with some significant collections and art collectors. Davey has consistently championed new sales and business opportunities, from launching a series of master classes on various areas of art collecting to organizing travelling exhibitions in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Kiev. Davey has a career-long interest in history of art collecting, and has pursued academic and charitable projects that expand the understanding of the global diversity of contemporary art collecting and curatorial practice. She has begun an academic research project on the topic of art philanthropy and the creation of private museums and foundations. Alina Davey has lectured at Sotheby’s Institute on the History of Private Museums, and at Faberge and Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg on the role of museums in a global age.
