Julia Stoschek was born in 1975,[1] the daughter of Michael Stoschek, a German billionaire businessman, chairman of Brose Fahrzeugteile, the German car parts company founded by her great grandfather Max Brose, a Wehrwirtschaftsführer in Nazi Germany.[2]

Stochek's great grandfather Max Brose employed prisoners-of-war as slave laborers in his factory during World War II. At the end of the war he was tried and convicted as a Mitläufer.[3]

Stoschek first began buying art in 2003.[4] Her collection features more than 850 works by about 250, mainly European and US artists[5] working from the 1960s onwards and includes video, multi-media environments, internet-based installations and performance.[4] The Julia Stoschek Collection in a former industrial building in Düsseldorf-Oberkassel opened in 2007, and has two floors of exhibition space, over 2,500 square metres (27,000 square feet).[6] Within the first ten years from 2007 until 2017, the Julia Stoschek Collection staged 15 exhibitions,[7][8] including solo shows of Cao Fei (2009), Derek Jarman (2010),[9] Sturtevant (2014), Wu Tsang (2015) and (2015).[10]

In 2016, the Julia Stoschek Collection opened a satellite exhibition space in a former Czech cultural center in Berlin.[4] The space has in the past shown solo shows by artists including Arthur Jafa (2018).[11]
