Thomas Behrens Email & Phone Number

I am an Independent Art Curator and Project Manager with over two decades of experience. A natural organizer and an artist living in New York City, I bring a keen attention to detail, professionalism and thoughtful collaboration to every project, from inception to completion, regardless of scope. During my long tenure as a Curator at the JP Morgan Chase Art Collection, I continued the mission of corporate art collecting as envisioned by David Rockefeller, who founded the Art at Work program in 1959. In my leadership role there I continued to contribute to a collection that focuses on modern and contemporary art, with special attention to emerging, developing, and under-recognized artists globally. I worked to elevate the presence of art in the workplace and maintain the integrity of The Collection.I bring a wide range of experience - everything from acquisitions, creating proposals, budget accountability, communication with artists, galleries and high net worth clients, planning and layout, to coordinating final installation. Overseeing all aspects of international and local curatorial projects, my experience can easily be tailored to projects to fit individual budgets and needs.
