George Lindemann (M.B.A. '99) is passionate about art and collecting. Moving to Miami from New York in 1997, he was attracted to the local contemporary art scene. Shifting gears, he sold his traditional, 19th century American art collection and began assembling a diverse and exciting collection of paintings, sculpture, ceramics and more.

There are so many fantastic, young artists and so much new happening.”
Lindemann not only focused on building his own collection, but got involved in supporting the arts for the public by serving as the chairman of the board of trustees of the Bass Museum of Art and as vice chairman of the board of directors for the Miami-Dade Performing Arts Foundation.
