Stephane Vartanian has always been passionate about art and design. He was raised in a French Armenian family where he was surrounded by art and artists.
His grandmother, VartanianVirginie, was a painter and Stephane still holds fond memories of the smell of her oil paints whenever he visited. His parents were also avid art collectors who supported artists their whole lives.
Stephane had very much followed in his family’s footsteps. In 2009, he met the Graffiti artist CEET, on the street in Hong Kong and this proved to be a turning point for Stephane and has seen him evolve from art collector to art curator.
In the past few years, he has produced exhibitions in Hong Kong for a number of French Artists such as Kongo, Colorz, JorisGhilini.
The success of these exhibitions has seen Stephane become much sought after art adviser to important collectors in France, Hong Kong and China.
