About
NOMAD
Conceived by Giorgio Pace and Nicolas Bellavance-Lecompte, NOMAD establishes a unique dialogue between art, architecture and design in a very personal context. It speaks to those, who are looking for a different experience from the one found among large-scale fairs. Within the refined historical interiors of Chesa Planta in St. Moritz, the grand rooms of Villa La Vigie in Monaco or Palazzo Soranzo Van Axel Palazzo in Venice, up to 4000 international high-networth visitors attended each edition of NOMAD in the last three years. Every showcase lasts four to five days, access is limited. In addition to the main event, NOMAD boasts a distinguished VIP programme, consisting of talks by prominent designers and artists, architect led tours of local landmarks, and invitations to private homes or collections that inspire visitors and participants alike and allow for spending rare moments with new acquaintances, future colleagues and old companions.
