Paris gallery directors join forces to launch 'open-ended' advisory
Briefly

Samy Ghiyati and Nicolas Nahab, both seasoned professionals in the art world, have established NG, a multi-pronged art business based in Paris. This innovative venture includes traditional advisory services, collection management, and a roving exhibition program. Their desire to break away from the constraints of commercial galleries motivated them, as they sought to cater to evolving client interests, particularly in diverse art from various regions. The collaboration was sparked by their work on a charity project for Moroccan earthquake relief, emphasizing trust and shared vision in their partnership.
"I felt like I had achieved everything I wanted to in a commercial gallery. At a point you begin thinking independently from the structure, and want to find a model that best corresponds to you."
"Many of my existing clients were expressing a desire to begin collecting art from other regions, such as the Middle East and Latin America, as well as non-fine art categories."
"It is hard in this industry to find people with whom you feel you can speak freely; Nicolas is one of those people."
"Their confidence to strike out on their own was ultimately spurred by a conversation with a French collector who wanted to focus more on art."
