escribed as ‘the best connected man in London’ and heralded as
a ‘tastemaker’ Jean-David Malat has become one of the world’s most respected and influential art dealers.
Born in Paris, and now based in London, Malat has curated an internationally renowned reputation over the last 12 years, which has placed him at the forefront of art dealership and curation.
Having trained at Sotheby’s, one of the world’s largest and most prestigious brokers of fine art, jewellery and collectibles, Jean-David began his career selling several late-period Picasso paintings, two of which were acquired during the 2008 recession. Whilst the foundations of his respected career were established through the dealership of world-renowned artworks, Jean-David has since become synonymous with the world of contemporary art and praised for his capacity to notice, nurture and champion emerging artistic talent.
