Let's Get Into

Our story

Founded in 2018, The Parallel is a contemporary art advisory that builds meaningful connections between artists, collectors, and the evolving art world. What began as an experimental studio exploring immersive media and new modes of experiencing exhibitions, has grown into a full-service advisory grounded in curatorial rigor and a forward-thinking approach to collecting.

Headquartered in New York City, we collaborate with both emerging and seasoned collectors to shape thoughtful, lasting collections. Our core expertise lies in identifying and championing emerging and mid-career artists worldwide while facilitating discreet private sales of blue-chip works. Each engagement is guided by in-depth research, market intelligence, and a strong visual perspective. Services include tailored acquisition strategy, collection development, provenance research, exhibition curation, and collection management.

To deepen that dialogue, we've expanded into The Parallel Art Industry News, a digital publication delivering concise, analytical reporting on market shifts, technological innovation, and critical conversations shaping contemporary art. The outlet provides collectors, artists, and professionals with timely insights and context, complementing our advisory work and reinforcing our commitment to transparency and education.

Whether cultivating a first acquisition or refining an established portfolio, The Parallel is dedicated to fostering visionary collections and sustainable engagement with contemporary art, advancing a culture of curiosity, integrity, and shared discovery.
