Alard von Rohr-Demmin is a London-trained expert on Western art, architecture and history. He guides mainly American high-level groups, VIPs and individuals through Europe's artistic centers from London to Istanbul. Alard's programs are tailored to the specific interests of his clients, who he brings together with Europe's top museum directors, private collectors, contemporary artists, ambassadors and royalty. His programs are either built around a particular art event - such as an art fair or a biennial - or explore a destination free from such an occasion. In any case, Alard's trips combine unparalleled VIP access with unparalleled scholarship, turning a journey into a cross between a fabulous lecture series, a state visit, and a great party.
Alard collaborates with the world's top art travel agencies in preparing and executing some of his programs for larger groups.
