About this podcast
Welcome to The Collectors' Edge from Nordic Art Partners – our guide to the specific work we do in the modern and contemporary art world.
We are researchers, dealers and collectors and our episodes explore the art and markets of under appreciated artists from history that intrigue and inspire us and that form the core of our professional activities. Our episodes strive to offer anecdotal journeys in learning, thoughtful insights and the wisdom of our professional experience, designed to help with well-informed collecting strategies.
Whether you're intrigued by the intricacies of the art industry, seeking expert advice on putting some of your money into art, or simply looking for inspiration about interesting and beautiful things to acquire that have been rigorously vetted by us, this podcast is for you.
Join us as we explore the art of collecting with a keen eye for aesthetic excellence and practical value.
