During Art Dubai, we sat down to talk with Leila Heller and listened to her story about 40 years of experience in the world of art.

"Leila Taghinia Milani Heller" began her career in America by working at the Guggenheim Museum. After that, in 1982, she opened her own gallery in New York. In the same decade, the works of prominent artists such as Hossein Zende Roudi, Monir Farmanfarmaian, Nikzad Nojoomi, Masoud Arabshahi, YZ Kami  were exhibited in the gallery.

Leila Heller explains how the international market for these artists has gradually stabilized and what was the role of museums in this.
