We manage the exit strategy on behalf of our investors to achieve the best possible outcome based on the market conditions at the time. Depending on the market situation, the painting will be sold to a private collector or offered as a single lot at an auction for contemporary art. An auction is considered if the price has developed to the point where the minimum bid matches the market value and there is strong demand for the artist’s work. Both options are carefully evaluated, and we choose the one that maximizes returns for our investors.
For centuries art was collected for its cultural, emotional, intellectual, political, and economic value. Investing in emerging artists offers a mix of financial potential and personal satisfaction, making it an appealing option for both new and seasoned collectors.
In Debates (2024), Ksenia Pasyura captures the electricity of human interaction—the moments when ideas clash, emotions rise, and identities intertwine. Her monumental 200 x 200 cm canvas is a charged stage where distorted figures lean in and push back, their wide eyes and angular expressions revealing the beauty and friction of dialogue.
This is not simply a scene; it is a reflection of Pasyura’s larger mission—to expand the language of figurative painting and disrupt traditional notions of beauty. As a woman artist working in a market that is finally beginning to redress decades of imbalance, Pasyura stands at the forefront of a generational shift. Sotheby’s reports that works by women have surged in both representation and value, with sell-out exhibitions and record-breaking auction results redefining the landscape.
Her ascent is not by chance. Represented by Nahmad Projects—backed by one of the most powerful art-collecting dynasties in the world—Pasyura’s career is nurtured by a curatorial vision and market expertise historically reserved for blue-chip masters like Picasso and Calder. This rare backing offers both credibility and a launchpad for long-term recognition.
Only two of her works have ever appeared at public auction, each achieving results many times over their estimates. In a supply-starved market, Debates enters as one of the very few available to collectors, carrying both rarity and institutional weight.
Owning this work means participating in a cultural moment where artistic innovation, female empowerment, and market momentum converge—ensuring that its significance will resonate far beyond the canvas.
Debates offers a rare convergence of cultural relevance, institutional validation, and financial upside. Backed by strong market data and a compelling entry discount, it stands as both a symbol of shifting art-world dynamics and a well-positioned investment, poised to deliver impact on the wall and in the portfolio.
