Our story
The Ode To was founded in 2018 and in 2024 me, Gabriella Klingspor with team, was taking over this wonderful gem in the art world.
At The Ode To, we are passionate about discovering emerging talent and carefully curating a unique collection of contemporary art. From stunning sculptures and captivating objects to striking paintings and intricate drawings, we seek out works by some of the most talented artists out there. Whether you’re buying your very first piece or adding to a well-established collection, we offer the opportunity to fill your space with extraordinary art that few others will have.
Our name, The Ode To, reflects our philosophy of paying tribute—to great artistry, exceptional design, and the creative spirit. We work closely with artists we truly admire, ensuring that our platform is a dynamic space for creativity to flourish. As curators, we’re not just presenting art; we’re illuminating the present moment, bringing the most exciting and inspiring pieces to light.
meet gabriella
I am based with my family in Stockholm, Sweden, and have a lifelong passion for colors, forms, and aesthetics, combined with a Bachelor's degree in psychology and studies in modern and contemporary art. I have been navigating the art world for over 20 years and value long-lasting relationships, both personally and with the artists we collaborate with for a fruitful collaboration, I believe it is essential to listen to each other and work as a team, always respecting artistic integrity while being a supportive partner. I often get asked about my preferences regarding art in my own home. The answer is that I only collect art that resonates with my heart and senses—never swayed by others’ opinions.
My home is my castle and to me the artworks are like family members that you meet everyday – then you really have to like them! I also emphasize the importance of good lightning and candle lights – especially for us living in dark North. I often gravitate towards earthy color palettes and never purchase photographic art with eyes staring back at me.…I enjoy redecorating frequently, and acquiring new art pieces is both my hobby and my work.Our whole team has worked extensively with galleries, exhibitions, and artists both in Sweden and internationally. We help building meaningful art collections and provide exceptional pieces for private homes, businesses, and public spaces.
