For over three decades, Craig Nassi has cultivated a deep appreciation for contemporary art, building a collection that mirrors his vision as a developer of transformative spaces.

This collection represents a carefully curated journey through contemporary art, reflecting both personal aesthetics and a broader appreciation for artists who push boundaries and challenge conventional perspectives. As someone who has dedicated his career to creating innovative urban environments, Craig brings a unique spatial and architectural sensibility to his art collection, focusing on works that engage with themes of transformation, urban life, and human connection.

Craig Nassi brings a unique perspective to art collecting, informed by his background in education and his success in real estate development. Born in New York City and educated in Colorado, his journey began as a passionate educator, teaching social studies and coaching three sports at the secondary level. This foundation in education continues to influence his approach to art collection, emphasizing learning, growth, and sharing knowledge with others.
Craig’s journey in art collection parallels his development career, both driven by a vision for transformation and innovation. As the founder and CEO of BCN Development, he has demonstrated an exceptional ability to identify potential and create value in urban spaces. This same discerning eye and forward-thinking approach guides his art collection.
His background in educational leadership brings a unique dimension to his collecting philosophy. Just as he transformed Denver’s downtown landscape and continues to reshape urban environments nationwide, Craig approaches art collection with a focus on pieces that challenge perspectives and create dialogue.
A dedicated marathon runner and health enthusiast, Craig brings the same discipline and commitment to his art collection as he does to his personal and professional pursuits.
