Contemporary Art Society / Pictet Asset Management
Pictet, London : Collection of Contemporary Art

In her capacity as an associate curator at the Contemporary Art Society, Jeni Walwin has been curatorial advisor to the London office of the Swiss private bank Pictet & Cie. Since 2007 she has helped the bank to establish a collection of contemporary work by British and International artists. Although there was no initial brief for the collection, it has acquired works that reflect a broad definition of landscape with a focus on line and surface. To date 45 works by 19 artists have entered the collection and are installed in meeting rooms, reception areas, break-out spaces and stairwells.
