Description

Jacqueline is an alumna of the MA in Art Business, Sotheby's Institute of Art London.  Since joining Bonhams in 2017, Jacqueline has been involved in some of the company's most important sales and events, most recently the previously unseen single-owner sale ‘Kusama: The Collection of the late Dr Teruo Hirose’. As Head of Sale, she brought the first mural by Keith Haring to market, achieving a new world record for the artist; she conceived and executed 'Paper Jam' - the department's first curated selling exhibition, and devised the exhibition of the collection of visual arts patron and hip-hop icon Q-Tip from A Tribe Called Quest.
In addition to her role at Bonhams she also runs an independent auctioneering and fundraising consultancy, serving non-profit institutions and holding auctions at high profile charity galas and benefit events in the United States and Europe. Her clients include international royalty from HRH Prince Charles to Jay-Z and Beyonce, and she has shared the stage with leaders of finance, entertainment, tech and politics. Over the years she has auctioneered to thousands of bidders and raised millions for charity.
