Ronan Grossiat is a management consultant and art collector. He is General Secretary of the Association for the International Diffusion of French Art (ADIAF), a non-profit organization bringing together more than 300 art collectors and patrons, dedicated to the international promotion of artists living and working in France. In 2000, ADIAF created the Marcel Duchamp Prize, one of the most prestigious contemporary art prizes in the world. Ronan is involved in supporting the diversity of artistic scene and its visibility abroad, outside the logic of the market and speculation, through artistic projects in institutions, residencies or biennials. He accompanied the launch of several non-profit foundations and endowment funds dedicated to contemporary art, promoting within them the development of an ‘Ethics of Relation’ deontological line. He regularly contributes to acquisitions committees or juries dedicated to emerging contemporary art.
