Gavin Abadi launches global blue chip art platform
Art dealer Gavin Abadi has launched Gavinabadi. shop, a curated online platform specializing in Modern and Contemporary blue chip art. The platform is designed to serve both established and emerging collectors and auction houses globally by providing a direct channel to acquire works by significant twentieth and twenty-first-century artists.
The platform’s portfolio includes works by prominent figures such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Keith Haring, Yayoi Kusama, KAWS, Invader, Shepard Fairey, and Banksy. The website features a mix of available and sold works, providing pricing and facilitating private inquiries regarding the condition, provenance, and availability of pieces.
Abadi, who was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, brings over three decades of experience in the international art trade to the venture. His background in the industry was shaped by a family lineage of antique and art dealing, having learned the profession through practical experience from his father and grandfather.
