Together with brother David, Ezra Nahmad is an international megadealer of modern and impressionist art, which they trade mostly at auction.The two own an inventory worth some $3 billion that they store in a duty-free warehouse next to the airport in Geneva, Switzerland. Their stockpile includes works by more than 30 blue chip artists, from Monet and Matisse to Renoir and Rothko. Among their holdings: 300 Picassos, worth at least $1 billion.
Ezra's son Hillel owns the Helly Nahmad gallery in London; his nephew, also named Hillel, owns a gallery by the same name in New York City. Though Ezra and David attend auctions together, Ezra keeps a low profile and never talks to the press, unlike his voluble brother.
