Would you like to meet Yulia Topchiy? She's an art advisor that buys art for collectors all over the world...
Published: Wed, 11/22/23
Yulia Topchiy is a well-connected art advisor who is an advocate for artists and also is always looking to buy art for existing collections.
Last month, we had the privilege of hosting Yulia Topchiy at a Praxis Roundtable -- a weekly Zoom call where Praxis students meet and interact with influential collectors, curators and gallerists.
Here are some highlights from that Roundtable:
- Video Clip 1: She is talking about the origin and mission of the Assembly Room, an art space supporting women and minority artists that transitioned to online during the pandemic. She explains her choice of Detroit as a cultural hub and express gratitude for her experiences there.
- Video Clip 2: The young generation will NOT become custodians of their parents’ and grandparents’ art collection: it’s expensive, it’s not their taste, many of them prefer minimalist interiors. So which new avenues will this old money flow into once generational wealth transfer happens - and how can you as an artist leverage that? The example of Robert Rauschenberg's estate management is also highlighted
as a positive model.
- Video Clip 3: She is talking about the motivation behind creating the Assembly Room, which was to empower female curators with the knowledge and confidence to navigate the art world. They address the challenges faced by women in the industry and their efforts to educate and build a supportive community for female curators and artists. She also reflects on the changing landscape for women in the arts.
Anyway, as I said, Yulia Topchiy is an art advisor who not only buys work, she is always looking for ways to support artists which is why she continues to buy art and also find ways for artists to exhibit and thrive through initiatives like grants and exhibition spaces.
Would you like to meet her?
As a Praxis member, you can!

- When you enroll, you get access to the full, 1-hour recording of our Roundtable with Yulia Topchiy. The insights Topchiy shared will help you reach out to her and have the chance of working with her, which means selling your art!
- In addition, as a Praxis member you also get to meet a new art world insider like Yulia Topchiy every single week, live, at our Praxis Roundtable, which is a Zoom call with a different collector or curator each week…
- You’ll get my assistance to effectively reach out to the movers and shakers you meet at these Roundtables. I’ll give you two letter templates you can use, so that you don’t have to worry about what to say and will have a better chance of getting a response back.
- Best part? Mentorship. You can ask me to personally edit these emails and letters before you send them out to make sure that they are compelling and you don’t get ghosted.
Plus: you also get personal access to me, Brainard Carey, and a suite of educational guides on topics ranging from social media tactics to writing statements/applications to reaching galleries and getting feedback on your art.
That said, I’m willing to bet that if you ONLY showed up for the weekly Praxis Roundtables over Zoom and met the collectors, curators and dealers that are there, without doing ANYTHING else, you will at the very least 3X your investment right away.
Which is why I offer a money back guarantee if you are not happy.
