About

Nicole Plaskett holds a Master’s degree in History from the University of Toronto.  Nicole has worked in London, England with a renowned fine-art restorer and dealer, the experience allowing her to immerse herself in the UK art market, working with high-profile clientele with a focus upon Old Master and British portrait paintings. Nicole participated in bidding & purchasing through international auction houses and experienced the London art market hands-on.

Nicole was then hired to assist an established Toronto fine art gallery which specialized in 19th and 20th century Canadian and International artists. After two years, she was then recruited to manage the Art Dealers Association of Canada. Within this role, Nicole formed relationships with gallery owners across Canada and became familiar with the Canadian fine art market.

Following more than fifteen years of experience within the visual arts and Canadian cultural heritage realms, Nicole is thrilled to have spent the last two years working at one of the leading auction houses in Canada.
