At HNAD Art Advisory, we offer a comprehensive range of services tailored to clients in Canada, ensuring a seamless and enriching art experience. Our expertise extends across various aspects of the art world, including advisory services, collection management, acquisitions and curation.
HNAD Art Advisory was born out of a collective vision between Aleya Dwivedi and Hannah Nashman, two seasoned professionals with over 20 years of combined experience in the international art industry. Having navigated various facets of the industry, we recognized a critical gap in the Canadian market: a lack of dedicated support and guidance for both established and budding private collectors.

Through our bespoke range of services, we strive to redefine and make accessible the art experience, offering a range of solutions that transcend geographical boundaries.

Our team brings unparalleled expertise across various facets of the art world, from curatorial prowess to astute market insights and logistics, we ensure a bespoke art experience for every client.
With an extensive network spanning artists, galleries, and institutions worldwide, we facilitate the acquisition of exceptional artworks tailored to our clients' discerning tastes. Whether seeking contemporary masterpieces or emerging talents, we source pieces of unparalleled quality and significance, enriching our clients' collections with each acquisition.
We offer comprehensive collection management services to build, enhance, and preserve clients' art assets, tailoring collections that reflect their unique vision and identity. Our personalized services and hands-on approach guides clients through every step of the acquisition process, ensuring their aesthetic preferences and budgetary considerations are meticulously addressed.
Collaborating with galleries, museums, and cultural institutions, we curate exhibitions and events that celebrate artistic excellence and enrich the cultural fabric of Canada.
