Anne-Marie Schneidermann has finally landed her first major exhibition - thirty-six floors above Frankfurt. But the higher she rises in the art world, the more uncertain her footing becomes. Between impossible contracts, institutional gatekeeping, and the quiet violence of professional etiquette, she begins to question what she is really signed up for. As her carefully curated Impressionist works are weighed, priced, and debated by strangers, Anne-Marie confronts an unsettling truth: the art market values harmony, not honesty. Beauty, it seems, is only worth what someone is willing to pay. The Painter on Floor Thirty-Six is a portrait of the artist in crisis - a lyrical meditation on ambition, aesthetic fatigue, and what remains when artistic vision collides with commercial reality.
