Daniel Katz

Michael Berkeley's guest is the art dealer and collector Daniel Katz.

Daniel Katz is a renowned art dealer, collector and gallery owner who has very much beaten his own path through the tangled forests of the art world.

Although he left school at the age of 14, his energetic curiosity brought him early success, making a profit of 拢15 on the first bronze he bought, and discovering something quite unexpected inside a grandfather clock.

Danny is an expert on European sculpture, but has also branched out into new fields, including antiquities, Old Masters, Impressionist paintings and Modern British Art. He鈥檚 worked closely with museums, exhibitions and libraries around the world.

Danny's choices include Schubert, Debussy, Sibelius and Bernstein.
