A NEW NOTE AT GALLERY PRIVÉ

Gallery Privé — Art, Music and Culture

GALLERY PRIVÉ WELCOMES ANASTASIA ROMANIUK

Celebrating Music, Talent and the Art of Performance

Gallery Privé has always believed that creativity should extend beyond the traditional boundaries of a gallery. Art can exist on canvas, within sculpture, through photography and design — but equally, it can exist in a single moment of live performance.

It is therefore a pleasure to welcome Anastasia Romaniuk, a professionally trained violinist now based in Budapest, to the Gallery Privé creative community.

This collaboration is a little different for us.

We are not acting as Anastasia's commercial agent, nor is this a paid partnership. Gallery Privé is supporting Anastasia without charge and receives no commission from opportunities or performances generated through our platform.

We are doing it for a much simpler reason: we believe in supporting creative talent.

From Kyiv to an International Stage

Anastasia's relationship with music began with a rigorous classical education.

She studied at a specialised music school before progressing through professional music college and continuing her studies at the Kyiv Conservatory, developing the technical discipline and musical sensitivity required of a professional violinist.

Her career would eventually take her far beyond Ukraine.

Anastasia spent several years in China, performing professionally as a violinist with a symphony orchestra in Zhangjiajie. It was an experience that placed her within an international musical environment and allowed her to perform before audiences from many different cultures.

Today, Anastasia is based in Budapest, bringing those experiences together in the next chapter of her career.

More Than Classical

What particularly interests us about Anastasia is the possibility of taking the violin beyond expectations.

There is something extraordinary about an instrument with centuries of history existing within a completely contemporary environment.

A violin can command a concert hall, but it can also transform the atmosphere of an intimate dinner, a fashion presentation, a gallery opening, a luxury hotel or a contemporary cultural event.

Anastasia brings classical training into these environments with elegance, presence and versatility.

For Gallery Privé, that relationship between tradition and contemporary culture feels entirely natural.

Our own work has repeatedly explored the point at which visual art and music intersect. From exhibitions inspired by some of the world's most significant musicians to photography capturing extraordinary moments of live performance, music has long been part of the Gallery Privé identity.

Supporting a musician directly feels like a natural continuation of that journey.

A Personal Endorsement

For Gallery Privé founder and creative director Hiren Kothari, the decision to support Anastasia is also personal.

“Throughout my career I have been fortunate to meet extraordinarily creative people. I believe that when you encounter genuine talent, sometimes the most valuable thing you can do is simply help create an opportunity for that talent to be seen.

Anastasia has the discipline of a professionally trained musician, but she also possesses something that cannot simply be taught — presence.

I wanted Gallery Privé to give her another platform from which people can discover her work, see her perform and hopefully create new opportunities for her.

We don't charge Anastasia anything and we don't take a commission. There is no commercial motive behind our support. It is simply one creative person supporting another.

I am delighted to personally endorse Anastasia and welcome her to the Gallery Privé family.”

Supporting Creativity Without Taking From It

The creative industries can be extraordinarily rewarding, but they can also be difficult places for independent artists to navigate.

Talent alone does not guarantee visibility.

Gallery Privé believes established creative platforms can play a small but meaningful role by occasionally using their networks, audiences and experience to help deserving talent reach people they might otherwise never encounter.

That philosophy sits behind our relationship with Anastasia.

She remains an independent professional musician. Our role is simply to provide additional visibility, introduce her work to our international audience and offer our endorsement.

There is no fee.

There is no commission.

There is simply support.

Music Is Also Art

A painting can remain on a wall for centuries.

A sculpture can occupy a space for generations.

Music is different.

A performance exists in a particular moment — the movement of the bow, the vibration of a string, the silence immediately before the first note and the emotion experienced by the people present.

Then the moment disappears.

Perhaps that is precisely what makes live music so powerful.

Through photography and video, Anastasia's new Gallery Privé page will allow visitors not merely to read about her, but to see and hear her perform — offering a glimpse of the person behind the instrument.

She is available for selected private events, corporate occasions, luxury hospitality, weddings, fashion presentations, cultural events and bespoke collaborations in Budapest, throughout Hungary and internationally.

Welcome to Gallery Privé, Anastasia.

We look forward to seeing — and hearing — where the journey takes you.
