Julia Stoschek (born 1975) is a German art collector, specializing in time-based media art.

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.[2]

Stoschek first began buying art in 2003.[3] Her collection features works by mainly European and US artists working from the 1960s onwards and includes video, multi-media environments, internet-based installations and performance.[3] 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).[4] Since the opening, she has mounted regular collection-based shows, including solo exhibitions on Cyprien Gaillard and Bruce Nauman.

Stoschek also is the vice chair of the Kunst-Werke Institute for Contemporary Art after being a member of the board for several years. In 2016, she opened a satellite exhibition space in a former Czech cultural center in Berlin.[3]
