Since 1989, Diana Lowenstein has been part of the international art scene through her role as an active gallery owner and director, first under the name Der Brücke and now as the eponymous Diana Lowenstein Gallery.

Mrs. Lowenstein began her career as a gallerist in Argentina, fomenting young local artists as well as organizing exhibitions of world-renowned foreign artists. Her art savvy, as well as established relationships with European galleries resulting from her start as an avid art collector, made it possible to represent grand masters such as Wifredo Lam, Roberto Matta and Antoni Tapies. One-man shows of their works were made available to an art-hungry audience in Buenos Aires.

For more than thirty-seven years, Diana Lowenstein has continued to be a fervid promoter of South American art while expanding to include a truly global stable of talent. Participating in high caliber art fairs such as FIAC in Paris, ARCO in Madrid, Art Basel in Switzerland, as well as Art Chicago and Art Basel Miami Beach in the United States, has been a staple of the gallery’s program. Furthermore, Diana Lowenstein has participated in numerous organizing committees of these fairs, being able to influence their orientation to include quality Latin American talent.

Contemporary art has always been Diana Lowenstein’s preferred artistic current, and her personal taste is evident in every show she curates.  An eclectic mix is ever-present in the paintings, sculptures, photography and installations exhibited at her gallery.

Diana Lowenstein strives to introduce vibrant new artists, undoubtedly enriching the community’s art diversity. She also makes her selections available to the rest of the world by continuing her presence in all major art shows and specialized magazines. This ongoing effort requires dedication, experience and expertise in the art field.

In September of 2000, the gallery headquarters were moved to Miami, occupying a spacious warehouse just south of Coral Gables. This decision was not a random selection but a careful and thought-out decision to be part of the up-and-coming South Florida art scene. Diana Lowenstein and her family have had businesses in Miami Beach since the late 1960s and she was “drawn to the dynamic changes in the Miami art scene” and the fact that the region “had become a melting pot of cultures and trends.”

In conjunction with the relocation, Mrs. Lowenstein was responsible for curating the artwork on view at The Ritz-Carlton, South Beach, a property owned by the family. The process was one of careful study of the hotel’s overall design, its historic value and presence, as well as the desire to reach a cohesive visual balance through the select group of artists she chose to include. Works from her private collection are still on view to the public.

Then in December 2008, the EPIC Hotel and Residences in Downtown Miami opened displaying a contemporary art collection curated by Mrs. Lowenstein along with her daughter, Flavia Lowenstein. Commissioned works by local and international artists reflect the spirit of the property.

The latest curatorial endeavors include the recently unveiled public art program at the Virgin Hotel in Chicago overseen by Mrs. Lowenstein, featuring artwork specifically selected and commissioned for this project. In addition, she has been dedicated to the ongoing research and planning of the restoration and renovation of the historic Medici castle owned by the family, Cafaggiolo, located on the outskirts of Florence, Italy.

Diana Lowenstein Gallery is now located in the Design District in Miami. The gallery represents over thirty artists from around the world. The gallery continues to add young emerging artists, both local and international, to its roster to satisfy the ongoing demand for the next generation.
