- Опубліковано 27 січ 2019
- Discover the visionary collection of legendary French contemporary art dealers Marianne and Pierre Nahon. In this episode of A Life Less Ordinary, Marianne and Pierre invite us into their home in Vence and explain how they turned a passion for art into a career, defending the creations of subversive artists such as César and Arman and being among the first to exhibit the works of Jean-Michel Basquiat and Andy Warhol in France. 250 artworks that lived with the Nahons will be auctioned in our upcoming sale 'L'Art C'est La Vie - Collection Marianne et Pierre Nahon' (19-20 March, Paris).

What an inspirational couple...! Their art collection is an expression of their lives and that makes it so special ! A true achievement... Félicitations Mme et M. Nahon...
The French language adds more beauty in this collection.
Art enlightened humanity
The editing is much too fast, especially if you have to read the subtitles.
They are so cute and you can just look at this couple together and it seems obvious, these folks are lovers of Artists...
I would love to be such a couple one day.
They are a lovely couple and aging well. I wish I could say the same for some of their collection , popular and cutting edge in it,s day may have lost some of it,s luster and appeal .
Adorable couple in love with Life, each other and L'ART💟
These are not bankers, oil company CEOs, mining company owners...he started in film and opened a gallery. I would say this is a positive in the world, wouldn’t you??
Julia Longpre - bien sûr et leur collection est vr. stupendante
The French need to get their guillotines sharpened and end this nonsense. This isn't "passion" it's pure unadulterated greed - gross. Everything is listed with it's "price" like a stock market, truly vile people.
@@tranzco1173 we all need to sharpen our guillotines
TRANZCO Oh shut up stop acting like rich people are evil for buying nice things. I guarantee you they’ve helped more people than you ever will
@@GODOFLIQUOR true
Beautiful collection, beautiful and passionate collectors.
Que des belles choses.
L'art, c'est la vie.
Je suis d'accord avec vous, monsieur.
My best artist is called the Earth and she makes gold, gems and pearls, i LOVE them all.
One small piece of this art museum would save my life.
This is fabulous and magic.
All just lovely.
Extraordinaria coleccion!
Thank you!
Les personnes comme ça sont rares . J ai adoré
Exquisite taste and magnificent art. Paintings and sculptures are stunning.. i ll look for more details of the collection reading their notes, to know more details on Koons, Warhol. Keefer, and much more. Love it!
Admire this lovely couple, bravo.
So beautifull a gift to be amongst such beauty and elegance
"Quand les gens sont passionnés, vous avez quelque chose en vous qui vibre".
Je suis un passionné d'art. Un jour je suis entré dans une galerie d'art, quand ils ont compris que je n'avais pas un sou,
il m'ont foutu dehors à coup d'pompe dans l'cul.
Great collection
Spectacular collection 😍
Gracias por ser ustedes ART.
desde Uruguay lo mejor
Wonderful combination interior design
Magnífico, enaltecer la belleza es el sentido de la vida
Rest in peace, Pierre. You had wonderful taste.
Vence, déjà c'est l'endroit parfait pour l'art. Quels gens fascinants 👌🏼
I like your house and the furniture, especially the round sofa with the statue on top!
Amazing collection, awesome couple
Great film.
These two have certainly stirred up the lovers and haters..I admire their commitment .Not there art particularly..
They are fully committed to investing in anything they could get their greasy duck fat covered fingers on - as an investment. Then, selling it off before they die to avoid inheritance tax.
Mish-mash of everything, like Hoarders, only their rich and had a broker tell them what to buy. These are the kind of people who ruin art, they are not patrons, all those artists are dead, they are investors.
@@tranzco1173 not all of them artists are dead :)
But I see your point. When I see Warhol...
super art
Simply Genial !
Awesome
Very interesting collections
Obrigada! Thank you!
This is how I feel about my Space Invaders. Dard - Zama - Brak - Horta
i love there style of collecting art
Plot Twist: They went to sell their pantings and found out they are all elaborate forgeries not even worth the canvas they're painted on.
No exception to excellence and certainties of time. Komposisi Bonjeur!, Haik!, Qui lai Francois, Madame.Bueno Solientes Familia. SMEs.............respectively.
멋찝니다~~~
I'd definitely be playing that pinball machine
Interesante
whose music is playing throughout the piece? thx
Me too
She is exquisite. What a lovely couple
Just wrote same - she is so beautiful.
Will this work with a minimalist lifestyle?
My artworks would hang beautifully there ....
Lord bless you:)
Great!... for you!
@@pkdarts Thank you. One day it surely will happen.
@Art walk & talk I hope:)
I would give them one if they would hang it and show their friends.
Es posible en español??
Beautiful collection!!
😃🙌🎨🖌️🖼️ * Excellent ~ Thank you.. Greetings from New York * ⚔️🖼️🪄⚱️🛡️🥰
im more a rembrandt, stubbs, canaletto, vermeer guy, old school, proper paint an easel and create master pieces. pitty you dont get those anymore. but they do what they love and living their passion and that inspiring.
Saw Svetlana Tatarovska’s work recently - really beautiful
You mean Russian Academy style?
That is for uneducated in art.
You have to educate yourself.
@@majdavojnikovic fuck off!!! how dare you attacking me and insinuate im uneducated for having a personal preference to art!! russian or not.... seriously!!!
Ok , we have a lovely rich French couple & Sotheby's giving us the art world fantasy of collecting with an inflated price tag , but i am somehow not impressed. Maybe i need to watch this again ?
No. I am not impressed either.
If I had the money, my collection would be fabulous, full of new artists that I personally discovered :)
They are gallerists, with marketing background, so it is heavy trade involved. I mean - Warhol, Kloons... Who takes those guys seriously?
I love Art and wonder where I can display my Art. I don’t have much money or influence. I am learning about Art from all the Great Masters Picasso,Dali. Andy Warhol. Trying to find my Style or Philosophy. I like Besinki. .The Polish Artist.
Beksiński 👍👏 wielki artysta Polski powstał o nim film tam zobaczysz wszystko na jego temat skończył tragicznie
qui a acheté le Picabia ? un musée ou un privé ?
Damn, what a beautiful woman.
I am agree that "Art is life"
Thank you🙏
I haven’t seen one thing I would wish to live with. Most of this art looks like it’s been rescued from the tip
Go learn art history
Art history has nothing to do with taste.
@@juliancoulden1753 well you judge it like you were a curator... lol
I am a collector, and so one could say I am a curator of sorts. That word curator is badly over used. Every one is a curator today!
@@juliancoulden1753 little bit it has, you educate yourself...
But yes, money doesn't buy you taste.
Voici la langue belle et douce de ma grand-mere. J'ai peur qu'elle soit perdue. Je voudrais encore ecouter le francais de Racine, de Boileau, et de Montherlant.
Si mes souvenirs sont bons, vous êtes frère et belle-soeur de Régine Nahon ?. Régine était une bonne amie.... j'aimerais beaucoup, beaucoup savoir ce qu'elle est devenue. Merci !.
I wonder if they bought any Macaroni art to hang on the fridge
Cosas caras pero feuchas...
best
La peinture me passionne mais je ne sais pas pourquoi je collectionne
Les coquillages. .......curieux non?
это не искусство, а вот дом их красив

Did you not miss the part where he talks of being young, starting out, building, taking chances (and encouraging others to do the same)? I find what they have done very impressive.
IDONT UNDERSTAND, IS IT TRUE?
I painting and those are very basic
Hola cordiales saludos .el hecho qué los intelectuales comentan errores .la adquisición de la copia del chico de Rojo de. Por la galería nacional de Londres no quiere decir qué privados oh museos oferten por la pintura original y legendaria obra maestra .debe Olvera a su Tierra natal . Francia oh Italia . qué son los dos países involucrados con éstos grandes maestros .se espera seriedad en el asunto de la pintura del chico felicidades
Cream rises to the top - so true.....
wonder how their security is ?
It's true I have written one book of gentle visualizations and sensory stimulus for meditations (not published). And true I have written a few short picture books and had real rejections.
But when people ask me "when are you going to write your book"? the book about your life and how you see the world. The answer is easy Never. And the reason is very simple.
If I wrote a book you would see straight away that I was completely mad.
But with my art I know people will one day look straight past my madness and see instead my brilliance.
In fact all my life I've longed for brilliance's most profound characteristics, simplicity.
There is something so pure about simplicity that there is no other word I can apply to brilliance even though I realize it has other forms.
Somewhere in the background of my life is an art dealer.
The real deal his trade for nearly 40 years.
He has given me this and that encouragement over the years. But his suggestion that I do a number of pieces and find a gallery and have a showing, has driven me to produce a body of work that is now ready, except for some frames.
He also told me to work faster and get a bigger brush, which I ignored up until 3 months ago
Brilliance madness I don't really care and I'm sure they can be the same thing when they are at opposite ends of the stick.
I think that the saying "onwards and upwards", with the gesture up into the sky (heaven) Was an invention of religion for the purpose of reducing fear in Soldiers
But for me, I will close with "onward and upward" in full optimism of something wonderful happening

I love what they were seeking. To acquire art that inspired them by established, emerging and even struggling artists. Art is so very objective and it looked as though they collected based on taste and or embedded inspiration as provided or learned from the artist. I admire them as I share a similar desire to create and showcase fine art, but, artistic fine art that reflects nude/ semi nude museum and gallery quality fine art where the primary subjects are women of color, specifically, African American women. Fine Art on display should be inclusive, young Black children and viewers of all ages and ethnicities should see, realize, value and proudly display and collect artistic fine art that demonstrates that Black Art and Black people are equally as beautiful. The mindset must be corrected that just like as Renior, Cezanne, Freud and even Stieglitz works of art featuring Caucasian women are viewed as master pieces that transcends generations and immortalized these women.
Black women as subjects can and should be valued on a comparable level.
Often times these artists featured their wives or significant others, and still the works were viewed as fine art and not negatively as "naked paintings of their wives". So we must change cultural mindsets so that Black women and their husbands/ families can become more open minded and are receptive to creating history for generations to come.
Afterall, what better way to demonstrate one's love and admiration than by immortalizing her? As Di Vinci stated " beauty is lost in life, but immortalized in art"

Instead of appropriating, why not become artists? Just curious. You can always go to a gallery. You don't have to amass & own.
sun flower everybody is an artist. But becoming one is where the problem lies
I've been an artist all my life, but exclusively for the last decade, leaving everything else behind. It was not so much a problem, as a necessity! Best to you, Olu! @@oluadeosunart
@sun flower am a self thought artist and I must confess it's really challenging and interesting as well. The beginning is always the hardest n it gets better. Art is more of a self expression rather than competing with your subject or reference. So many people are hiding under that fact that why we have so funny kinda heart. But a true artist has got concience to be real n loyal to self expression. They have mastered the craft. Thanks once morr
What's with the dreadful annoying background music? Why?
That’s a pitty they are not my grandparents.
Where has the beauty of creativeness gone...
Art must represent the beauty we see around us, to capture it and keep it in its purest moment.
That's what the Masters did.
Today, we have artists on drugs.....who create a mindless, drug induced fantasy that the drugs have given them, and call it art, and these people give it a high price tag.
l cannot accept that.
Beauty is truth!
Not euphoria.
Please close your doors.
In a world full of trash and stark extremes modern art is a reflection of the zeitgeist, just as most modern pop music is monotonous and tuneless and empty.
The aesthetic sensibilities of artists of previous eras as displayed in their work, are a reminder of the sublime in human endeavour and the presence of a higher power.
The legacy of the known and unknown artists from early history to the modern era shows a decline in aesthetic sensibility.
The invention of photography meant there was no longer a need to develop the skills to be able to faithfully copy images
of nature. A camera can do that.
Modern art shocks. It reflects the world we live in where the spiritual seems to have been replaced by the material and nothing is sacred.

More money than brains
Nickname 42....in reply.
Don't point the finger. Do something about it!
Yeah, they got carried away...dealers, should only own a few pieces!
Only the artist sells for less than what it's worth. Everyone else must make a dollar.. That's the crime. And it's not enough to buy what you are told to like, when you don't have the eye to discover an unknown.. That's called ignorance. Further more, to love art and not have the courage to create .. Is called cowardice. Together it adds up to a profound sickness of the soul.
Banality blithely unconscious of itself. Was it ever thus.
So much money just sitting there and so much need in the world. They have millions worth of trinkets there. And such a big house for two old bats.
I disagree. Much more money goes to weapons than in art. There you should complain about hungry children, not here.
The world needs this too.
But not quite this kind of heavy commercial art.
I wish my better half had a passion for art like I do. I cannot complain at least she has a passion for changing diapers and doing laundry
lol these prices are so fake
First!
I'm always surprised when I see serious collectors whose taste I find so deeply questionable. I mean, if you must collect this era and tendency, why not have Jean Dubuffet, John Chamberlain, Lee Bontecou, etc. For me, Segal is always the red flag of bad taste.
These two are notorious for their bad taste. They buy everything and anything as an investment, and particularly love depriving other collectors of their dreams. Check out Jean Luc-Leon's documentary "Un marchand, des artistes et des collectionneurs" - it's about their "dealings" - they are known for "poaching" art, and how they are the perfect representatives of everything wrong with the art market today
As collectors, they resemble Joseph Hirshhorn - they all want nothing less than the worst of everything.
LOL!! These Money Creatures and their contemporary art investment/collection are the same as the next. Their esthetics has nothing to do with the glorification of the beauty of life, but an inversion of it --- a grotesque distortion --- their collection is a freak show. For these Money creatures, it is all about investing in human mental dung and promoting it as visionary/contemporary creating a trendy market for bigger profits.
While in Africa children are starving, the poles melting, the air and water pollution increases, mass animal husbandry, rain forest gets deforested, but as long as I can watch my Andy Warhol hanging at the wall
Nickname 42 just because something's are wrong with the world. It doesn't mean people should not follow their passion.
@@bngr_bngr Until there is no passion more to follow, what they got there is impressive but irrelevant.
Nickname 42 - better then to destroy all art so that some better equality can be found, though one must kill all artists as well, and the poets, per Plato ... and Mao as well, which is why Warhol painted his portrait so sensitively
Anna Trypolskaya - dat car! dakar!! Dacca!!! DACA!!! d’accord
merci b.
@@davidmehnert6206 The ridiculous amount of money which is spent for art of every kind, could actually really do something better and useful in the world. I have more respect for a nurse, doctor, scientist, factory worker, teacher, cook, engineer of any kind, then for an artist of any kind. I can also take a shit on a piece of paper fold it, name it Creation - here only 50k bucks, or connect an oscilloscope to my head think about the Sahara transfer the waves into sound and name it sound of the desert.
Can't relate.
The problem with these art collectors, they rule the art world, because of there personal wealth... the rest of us have no chance.
6-8 tomatoes soup cans on paper ... is not art...
For me, some of their art work is mindlessness.
l beg to differ.
Start your own art world. Outsiders, students, and your own art for starters. Furniture, sculpture. Ignore this stuff. Art isn't about money, and what they are doing is just socioeconomic status signalling. The whole video is about how their "passion" is spending money. All the prices listed, really gross people. They happen to have a passion for really expensive stuff, instead of educating children, paying taxes, ending hunger, alleviating housing shortages. Just funneling their money into stuff they can horde for themselves and lord over other rich people.
@@tranzco1173 true you dont have to be rich to own art if you really love art you can make your own great art to.
Too modern for me.
Leurs goûts ne sont pas les miens.
Gross. It's like everything in their life has a price tag. Really sad way to end their existence, reveling in art they can lord over other mindless consumers.
Forget the price tag! Most of the collection is just expensive garbage! Called "MODERN ART"
All mainstream crap
It's all there: the vast entitlement, the hideous taste of filthy money, self importance, no eye for spirituality and deific genius, manipulation of Art by the damned and alliance with hellish forces, the agony of starving children ETC ETC.
products r life-whyte materialism at its most arrogant and elite
lol worst of all-no taste
can a certain thing truly be both hideous and beautiful? dont give me that 'its in the eye of the beholder' biz. That's always a sure fail. Or can this simply be, again, the uber-rich manipulating the minds of the obsequious ? .... seems that is it.
