Nassima Landau

Nassima Landau is acting as a bridge between the city of Tel Aviv and international contemporary art world. By establishing itself as a hub of free speech and artistic innovation, Nassima Landau has revolutionized the local Tel Aviv art scene. For most of the artists, it is their first exposure in Tel Aviv. The program includes multiple exhibitions of emerging and established artists, site-specific installations, and artist residencies.

Bridging Tel Aviv with the International Contemporary Art Scene

Nassima Landau (NU) presents international contemporary art of the highest standards in its art space in the center of Tel Aviv. NU first of its kind in Israel, features major exhibitions, residencies and unique one-time events. Nassima Landau showcases multiple exhibitions a year of international contemporary art, in a unique, fresh and dynamic way, unprecedented in Tel Aviv.

Steeve Nassima

Steeve Nassima is an influential art collector and philanthropist who began his collection journey at 21. Before co-founding Nassima Landau, he was instrumental in bringing Yayoi Kusama’s retrospective to the Tel Aviv Museum of Art, which is considered today the most successful exhibition in Israeli history. He has been playing a pivotal role in Tel Aviv’s cultural scene ever since.

Known for his dedication to Israel’s cultural landscape, Nassima also actively supports the Batsheva Dance Company, and has initiated a successful collaboration between the Foundation and the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra and other major cultural institutions in Tel Aviv, showcasing his commitment to both visual and performance arts across Israel.

Suzanne Landau

Suzanne is the former Director and Chief Curator of the Tel Aviv Museum of Art and former Chief Curator of Fine Arts at the Israel Museum, Jerusalem. During her tenure, Suzanne acquired works by then-young artists such as Jean-Michel Basquiat, Damien Hirst, and Maurizio Cattelan, amongst others. Over the years she has curated countless solo and group exhibitions for leading artists, including Anselm Kiefer, Gerhard Richter, and Louise Bourgeois, to name but a few.

Part of her vision for the Tel Aviv Museum of Art was to position it on the international art scene; she initiated its new branding and the renewal project of the Museum’s historical main building. In 2021 she curated Yayoi Kusama’s acclaimed retrospective at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art.
