Pierre Lévy joined Olivier Varenne in 2023 to lead on financial strategy and oversee complex art market transactions. He views artists and their works as a new class of assets, applying the same strategic mindset he developed over more than fifteen years as Managing Director at Yves Saint Laurent Couture, where he worked closely with Pierre Bergé. With a postgraduate degree in law and an MBA, Pierre has particular expertise in brand strategy and trademark licensing, and has also supported NGOs in their international growth.
