The Galerie Hofstatter, situated in the heart of Vienna, was established during the early 1950s by Wolfgang Hofstätter, a renowned figure in the realms of art history, art collecting, and art dealing. In 1989, control of the gallery transitioned to his son, Ulrich Hofstätter, marking the third generation of the family's involvement in the fine arts industry.

The collection showcased at Galerie Hofstatter places a strong emphasis on European sculptures and art pieces, encompassing the highest caliber of Haute Époque furniture. Notably, the gallery has served as a source for artworks that have eventually found their place in prominent museums and private collections across the globe.

Furthermore, in addition to regular correspondence with art dealers worldwide, the gallery has fostered robust connections with international art historians and distinguished art restorers. Consequently, collectors frequently turn to Galerie Hofstatter for guidance on various aspects of art transactions, encompassing the buying, selling, and restoration of artworks.

Ulrich Hofstätter extends a range of art-related advisory services, which encompass appraisals, research, collection inventory management, expert restoration, and bidding on behalf of clients during auctions.
