NICOLAS ORLOWSKI SKILL AND STYLE

After leading the merger of Artcurial and John Taylor, Nicolas Orlowski has built a European leader in the intermediation of exceptional property. This businessman schooled in the art of discretion has his secrets, namely a remarkably agile mind, real expertise at every level and unfailing support from all of his close collaborators.

What is the connection between Artcurial and the John Taylor luxury real estate group ? “User and pleasure investment”, replies Nicolas Orlowski, head of these two institutions grounded in the art of living and luxury.

This visionary, multi-specialist entrepreneur is also involved with Collector Square, the European leader for the online sale of appraised luxury goods, and Arqana, an auction house for thoroughbreds and trotters. “Whether looking for a villa on the Riviera, a mansion in Paris, a Swiss watch, a Hermès bag or rare cartoon strips, our clients wish to enjoy their investment immediately,” says the businessman, who is preparing to celebrate in September the 20th anniversary of Artcurial, whose prestigious headquarters are located at 7 Rond Point des Champs-Elysées Marcel Dassault.

Under his leadership, this Parisian art gallery has, in the space of two decades, been totally transformed into what is now the number one French auction house for works of art and collector items, and a leader in the world market. The group’s DNA? The art of breaking new ground: in fashion, jewelry, collector watches, cartoon strips, urban art and the metavers through the upcoming sale of NFTs (digital files to which a certificate of authenticity is attached). Regularly organized in Monaco, Paris, Marrakech and sometimes even online, these exciting sales attract different investor profiles, 72% of whom are international clients. What does the future hold? “I am not chasing huge growth.

There are plans to open new John Taylor branches and we are building what it takes to maintain our commanding position on the Côte d’Azur, to pursue our development in Paris, Geneva, Italy and Portugal, to enter new markets and always share synergies. The bridges we have created between our different entities stimulate the entrepreneurial spirit and the quest for excellence, and drive rigorous execution in the field. n
