Artists & Collection

Guilloche Group is built around an active commitment to collecting, preserving, researching, and collaborating. At the heart of the group are two distinct private archives, developed independently by its founders and now brought together in dialogue.

Lawrence Murray’s collection spans multidisciplinary contemporary practice, regional masters, and artists whose work engages with materiality, space, and lived environments. Denzel Otto’s collection focuses more specifically on contemporary photography, with particular attention to the Düsseldorf School and its enduring influence on photographic practice.

Together, these collections create a dialogue across generations, disciplines, and approaches to image-making and material culture. They reflect Guilloche’s broader interest in the relationship between contemporary practice and art historical continuity, not simply in acquiring works, but in building, documenting, and preserving a meaningful context around them.

The artists below represent a selection of those with whom Guilloche Group has worked or whose works form part of its collections.

Bas Princen

Photographer and architect whose practice examines evolving landscapes, urban structures, and the shifting relationship between natural and constructed environments.

Candida Höfer

A leading figure of the Düsseldorf School of Photography, known for her large scale photographs of unpeopled public and institutional interiors and their architectural, social, and historical character.

Bernd and Hilla Becher (1931–2007; 1934–2015)

German conceptual photographers whose collaborative practice systematically documented industrial structures including water towers, gas tanks, blast furnaces, and mining facilities. Their typological approach established a distinctive photographic language of repetition, classification, and architectural preservation, and became foundational to the Düsseldorf School.

Ernest Faut

Belgian painter associated with the late 19th and early 20th centuries, whose work reflects the traditions of Flemish landscape painting and regional portraiture.

Jongjin Park

South Korean contemporary ceramic artist whose layered porcelain and paper trompe-l'œil vessels explore illusion, transformation, and the possibilities of material.

Philip Aguirre y Otegui

Belgian-Basque sculptor and painter whose practice encompasses architectural interventions, public monuments, and geometric works distinguished by an emphasis on texture and surface.

Shailey Shah

Multidisciplinary contemporary artist working across space, text, and textile, whose practice explores the ways narrative and material intersect. Her work was featured in Guilloche Group’s Echoes of Realms exhibition.

Simon Schubert

Contemporary artist known for meticulously constructed architectural interiors and monochromatic geometric environments, created through an exacting process of paper folding.

Tu Ying Ming

Contemporary artist whose practice brings together elements of Eastern ink traditions with delicate monochromatic drawing and evocative approaches to portraiture.

Willem Steelink Jr. (1856–1928)

Dutch painter and illustrator known for landscapes, rural scenes, and historical subjects, with a practice rooted in the Dutch painting tradition and an attentive observation of place and atmosphere.
