This El Confidencial article by Yanira Rodríguez highlights the growing influence of women entrepreneurs and art patrons in Spain , a select group that combines economic power, discretion, and cultural commitment. From the iconic Koplowitz sisters to figures such as Carmen Thyssen , Pilar Citoler , and Helga de Alvear , these leaders invest in art collections, promote exhibitions, and shape opinions within the sector, establishing themselves as figures at the heart of the Spanish art world. Their passion for art and philanthropy makes them key players in the country's culture and society.
The work of Elisa Hernando Calero , director of the consulting firm Arte Global , stands out. She advises collectors and patrons on their art investments. Her experience in the art market and her strategic advice allow clients to build and manage valuable private collections, combining financial knowledge and artistic sensitivity.
