father’s.

"A passion, the word is not too strong to express
what is the driving force of my activity since always. I am primarily an art
lover, a collector. I buy and exhibit in my galleries what I would have liked
to keep in my private collection. My best reward is to see that I share my
favorites and my expertise. Thus expresses the founder of the eponymous
Gallery, which never ceases to innovate: in 2012, the Estades Gallery created a
department dedicated to monumental Art. This "tailor-made" offer
concerns town halls, local authorities, businesses and individuals, wishing to
enhance their real estate assets and offer well-being through the acquisition
of a major sculpture.
