Colnaghi, a renowned art gallery with a rich history, is set to open its first Middle Eastern branch in Saudi Arabia. The expansion, announced at the Cultural Investment Conference 2025, aligns with Saudi Arabia's efforts to boost its cultural sector and economic diversification.

Established in London in 1760, Colnaghi is one of the world's oldest art galleries. Its expansion into the Middle East, particularly Saudi Arabia, signals a commitment to strengthening its regional presence and supporting the Kingdom's burgeoning art market.

The new gallery, located in the heart of Riyadh, is expected to create opportunities for investment and development within the Kingdom's creative industries. With an investment valued at SR10 million ($2.7 million), it aims to bring an advanced cultural and artistic experience to Saudi Arabia, contributing to its cultural development and economic diversification.

Colnaghi's new gallery in Riyadh is set to open, marking a significant step in Saudi Arabia's cultural growth and economic diversification. Despite no public records of the owner of Sarat Investment Holding or a contract with Colnaghi, the gallery's arrival promises to enrich the Kingdom's art scene and stimulate investment in its creative industries.
