Helly Nahmad (UK) & Helly Nahmad Gallery London
Helly Nahmad (b. 23rd November 1976) attended St Paul’s School, London before reading History of Art at the Courtauld Institute of Art, London. In 1998, he founded Helly Nahmad London in Cork Street, Mayfair, and has built the gallery’s reputation for dealing exclusively in works by Modern and Impressionist masters of the 19th and 20th Century, including Pablo Picasso, Wassily Kandinsky, Henri Matisse, Claude Monet, René Magritte, Kasimir Malevich, Joan Miró.
In 2011, Helly Nahmad (UK) organised and curated the first ever exhibition of highlights from The Nahmad Collection, at Kunsthaus Zurich. The exhibition comprised over 100 masterpieces by artists from the Impressionist, Surrealist and Cubist movements, including Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Pierre-August Renoir, Henri De Toulouse-Lautrec, Pablo Picasso, Juan Gris, Rene Magritte, Max Ernst, Joan Miro, and George Braque. Works displayed included those which have been in the family collection for decades, and which have rarely been exhibited in public before. Helly Nahmad (UK) spoke about the exhibition to Jackie Wullschlager for Lunch with the FT [1].
This exhibition was followed in 2013 by ‘Picasso in the Nahmad Collection’ at the Grimaldi Forum in Monaco, an exhibition of over 120 works from the collection brought together to celebrate the worldwide 40th anniversary of the artist. The exhibition was curated by the Director of the Musée Picasso in Antibes, Jean-Louis Andral, and Marilyn McCully, an expert on the artist.
The first exhibition was described by Helly Nahmad in an interview for the exhibition catalogue as ‘These works are those which are very rare and which we feel especially privileged to own…We hoped to create a coherent experience for the viewer and show what we feel are the highlights.’
Commenting on exhibiting a large proportion of the collection for the first time, Nahmad said, ‘I think part of the attraction for us to exhibit at the Kunsthaus is to see where the collection stands today and how we, and the public, respond to it. Our aim is to look with fresh eyes and learn from this dialogue.’
In 2014, Helly Nahmad London presented 'The Collector' at FriezeFrieze Masters 2014, a full scale imaginary collector's apartment set in Paris in 1968, curated by Helly Nahmad and designed in collaboration with two leading British production designers, Robin Brown and Anna Pank. Scott Reyburn of The International New York Times stated that "London dealer Helly Nahmad evoked that “true” collecting spirit." [2] Read the full article here.
